The Pinot Meunier is truly earthy and mineral, a prized characteristic in sunny Napa, where the wines typically run fruitier. Nevertheless, it also has tantalizing blue fruits and a refreshing, bright backbone of acidity and lively structure. The wine ferments with 50% whole clusters in a small open-top tank, with two manual punch downs per day. We pressed after 14 days and aged the wine in neutral puncheons for ten months before bottling it unfined and unfiltered.
