Winemaker’s Notes: Made from the best parcels of Pinot noir and Chardonnay from 2014. Whole bunch pressed and cool fermented in stainless steel. The base blend was bottled where it underwent secondary fermentation in bottle April 2015. This Classic blend was then aged on the yeast lees for over 8 and a half years before being disgorged. Dosage kept low to showcase the fantastic natural balance of fruit and rich breadiness.
