<p>Winemaker’s note: “Our attempt to make a more structured red wine from an amazing site. Extended maceration and aging have led to beautifully integrated tannins and some more density than you may be used to in our wines.”</p><p>Vineyard: Colin and Anna’s Vineyard, North Fork of Long Island. Farming: Sustainable (No Herbicide)</p><p>Vinification: 50% whole-cluster and 50% destemmed fruit were macerated for 4 weeks with daily hand punch-downs. It was pressed directly to a neutral French Oak puncheon and aged for 18 months without racking or stirring before being racked to tank for bottling. SO2: 20ppm at crush</p>
