Ancien Wines "Sangiacomo Vineyard" Carneros Pinot Gris 2017

They pressed aggressively for maximum extraction of the exotic spices and to gain additional structure. They then separated press fractions in order to insure the proper development of structure and lushness while in barrel. They fermented the must entirely in neutral French oak barrels at a cool 50 °F, capturing and retaining rich fruit flavors while also developing a lush, expansive palate. In addition, we stirred lees to enhance texture and develop additional layers. 518 cases produced.
