Winemaker’s Note: “Harvested across multiple picking dates and blocks from our Biodynamic and organic estate. After 26 days maceration time with skins, the wine was pressed and transferred to French oak barrels (1which was new) for 18 months of aging. Four barrels were selected to make our Estate Petit Verdot and
bottled unfined.”
