Wednesday, May 6, 2015 - 7% Solution, SF 2015 (SF): V: Dark ruby, near opaque.
N: A bit of refermentation? Lambic character. Green olive character, verging on pyrazines or stem inclusion.
P: Structured, savory, warm green olive tones with good acidity. Driven by warm, green, baked flavors. Very nice!

"2.75 tons were harvested on October 5th, with another 3.7 tons arriving on October 17th. All lots were destemmed, but not crushed, and fermented in small ¾-ton T-bins with two hand punch-downs every day during fermentation, which lasted approximately 20 days. 50% of the lots fermented on the strength of their native yeasts. The 2012 matured for 16 months in oak barrels, with one new French oak puncheon representing 18% of the total, before being bottled on March 31st, 2014 with neither fining nor filtration."
