Borden Ranch Verdelho 2019

Production Notes

18-year-old Verdelho vines from the Borden Ranch appellation of Lodi grown on gravelly, Redding-clay-loam soils in a CCOF certified vineyard. Grapes were hand harvested and whole-cluster pressed the same day. The juice was pumped over prior to fermentation to help build texture into the wine and allow for a gently more oxidative style of winemaking. Wines were natively fermented, aged in neutral barrels, and kept on their lees (no stirring) until bottling. Minimal sulfur added, 79 cases produced.
