If all goes well in the Vineyard, the crop from an acre or two of Chardonnay or Pinot Noir is hand picked in the cool of night, and the fruit is delivered to the winery as the sun is rising or the fog becomes visible, like a blanket reminding us of the sleep we've missed.
At this point the winemaking process begins.
While it might seem odd to provide a 'recipe' for winemaking, Clos Pepe estate don't see it as a trade secret. Winemaking is a simple process for preserving the integrity of the fruit, the site and the vintage. Again, the magic is in the site, Clos pepe rather show a refreshing level of transparency in the way they farm and make wine so their customers feel that they can clearly understand and intuit how they treat their fruit and wine, and how simple the fermentation and aging process can be.
Tasting Notes:
The result is simple, beautiful and Vibrant Chardonnay in a French Style with some good balance and minerality..
All that done organically with little bit of French Barrel ageing.
