Winemaker Notes
This Pinot Grigio was lightly pressed to extract the cleanest juice possible. This fruit is grown with the intention of producing bright fresh sparkling wine. It is the first Pinot Grigio that we pick every year in order to make sure it maintains its acidic structure. Picking the fruit early ensures that the wine will retains its varietal character and has a moderate level of alcohol.
Other Notes
We ferment this wine to showcase the natural citrus that is present in the fruit.
