| Vinification The 2008 growing season began late due to a cool spring but July and August presented higher temperatures allowing for steady photosynthesis resulting in excellent sugar accumulation. A moderate September and October arrested sugar development premitting the grapes to mature and develop their great Okanagan flavours | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Winemaking Our Pinot 3 is comprised of 40% Pinot Gris, 35% Pinot Blanc and 25% Pinot Noir. The Pinot Noir was whole cluster pressed to impart intense fruit character from the juice while adding no colour or astringent tannins from the skins. This wine was fermented in stainless steel containers for three weeks. | |||||||||||||||||||||
