Our new 2024 Pinot Blanc is an excellent example of a white wine that has gone through malolactic fermentation (MLF). MLF is the conversion of the tart malic acid ( think “green apple”) into lactic acid (think smooth) By allowing this wine to go through MLF the wine is softer, more complex and more stable. The grapes are from a special one acre parcel on the eastern edge of our estate vineyard. Hand-harvested in mid-October, the fruit was carefully sorted and pressed directly into one of our concrete cubes for fermentation and aging. We love using concrete vessels for the texture and nuance they bring to the wine. For more on our Pinot Blanc.
