Fermentation: 2015 Pinot Gris was harvested in the cool of the early morning at low temperatures to maintain optimal fruit quality. The grapes were pressed and batches were fermented in stainless steel tanks to maintain the natural fresh and lively characters of the fruit. A small percentage was fermented in one and two year old oak to add complexity and texture.
