Elevage: Grapes were crushed into a bin with 50% stem inclusion and left to ferment with once daily punchdowns.

In September the wine was racked off its lees and bottled without fining or filtration.

Miscellaneous: From a recently planted vineyard on the east side of Cayuga Lake, a light bodied yet totally complete pinot noir with fine, firm tannin and deep, tart cherry fruit.
