Whole bunch in plastic tanks for 10 days.

After foot stomping, the grapes are placed in barrels for a 9-day fermentation period.
After a 9-day fermentation period, the grapes were put into barrels and aged in barrels for 11 months.

Bottled with a 5% blend of our own Merlot at bottling time.

Wild yeast, no sulfites.

The nose is light and fresh with cherry and raspberry aromas, but on the palate, the 5% Merlot is balanced with pleasant tannins.
The 5% Merlot adds pleasant tannins and good structure to the palate, a balance that I personally love.

It has the charm of Kyoho grapes, but is not at all cloying, making it a perfect match for a variety of dishes.
It is a wine that is easy to pair with a variety of foods.
