Winemaker Notes
The grapes for our Syrah were grown and hand picked from our partnered grower on the Naramata Bench.
After the grapes where picked we rushed them to the winery for processing. The grapes were destemmed and put into tank for fermentation. Daily pump-overs occurred during the 19 day fermentation. After fermentation was complete, we put the wine into both French (64%) and American (36%) oak for about 20 months.
