Narrow Gate Vineyards sits at 2,500 feet elevation in a pocket called Pleasant Valley, in the Sierra Foothills of Northern California. This leans towards an earthy spicy darker style of Gamay. Wave of pomegranate and backed by bergamot tea finish.
The wine was fermented in open top standing barrels with 100% whole cluster and native yeast. The grapes were pressed in the wooden basket press and then aged on lees in old french oak barrels for 7 months before being racked for the first time to bottle, with minimal sulfur and without fining or filtration.
Biodynamic and certified organic.
ABV: 11.5%
