The soil is sandy loam of granite alluvium from the north side of the San Gabriel Mountain range. The fruit was picked on two separate days at the end of August. HARVEST : Grapes farmed by Jeff Newton and crew. Wine raised by Herrmann York. VINIFICATION : Both varieties were fermented separately with 50% whole clusters under a blanket of crushed fruit. The maceration was short: four days for the Tempranillo and six for the Grenache. Both wines completed their fermentation in old French oak barrels after being pressed. After malolactic conversion was complete, we racked the wine and added 30 mg/l of sulfur. The wine aged for 7 months in old French oak.
