This beautiful wine is an exquisite choice to share with your friends and family. The Pommard and 777 clones combine to create a silky texture with red raspberries, forest floor, and appealing floral aromas.
My Parents and I chose two of our favorite barrels of Pinot Noir from the 2019 Vintage. One barrel of Pommard and one of Clone 777 were blended and then put back to barrel as identical two-barrel blends.
One of the barrels was left to age in the barrel room as standard. The other was taken into the middle of our estate vineyard, where we had dug a six-foot deep hole directly into the same soil where the grapes were grown. We lowered the barrel down into the hole and then carefully filled the hole and barrel back in with vineyard soil. The barrel remained underground and in direct contact with the soil for one year. We dug up the barrel on April 22nd, 2021, and drove it back to the winery. After letting the barrel settle overnight, it was moved directly from the barrel into the bottle.
