2023 Late Air Gamay

Vineyards

The Escolle Vineyard is planted in the Santa Lucia Highlands on Chualar Sandy Loam with large deposits of decomposed granite. Perfect conditions for growing world class Gamay.

Winemaking

The wine was harvested at 23 brix and fermented with 30% whole clusters. The wine was pumped over twice a day, pressed to neutral oak barrels, and aged for 8 months before bottling. We produced 120 cases.
