Here at Brassfield Estate, our winemaking emphasizes quality and the use of traditional handcrafted techniques, which create wines that have both power and finesse. We harvested our 2021 Petite Sirah in the early morning. We then crushed and transferred the fruit to stainless tanks for fermentation. We used twice daily pump-overs to keep fermentation healthy. The wine was then barreled down to undergo malolactic fermentation in our extensive wine caves. To showcase the fruit and structure of this wine, it was aged in 10% new American oak and 90% neutral oak barrels for 22 months. We stirred the wine monthly on its lees to achieve body and texture. This wine was lightly fined and bottled without filtration.
