Seghesio Keyhole Ranch Vineyard Vermentino 2021 750 ML

Our Estate-owned Keyhole Ranch in northern Russian River Valley is home to our Italian white varietals. This vineyard’s microclimate is tempered by cool coastal breezes and frequent summer-morning fog. The soils are composed of gravel and clay loams.
The grapes were handpicked at night to preserve vibrant flavors. They were whole cluster pressed, using a long, slow low pressure extraction in a pneumatic bladder press. Multiple harvest dates from a single vineyard allows us to layer flavors based on differing maturity levels in the fruit. 25% Concrete Egg fermented and aged; 75% Stainless Steel Tank fermented, racked off of heavy lees after 3 months. Lees contact lends to textural complexity while maintaining fruit and bright varietal essences.
