2021 Carbonic Carignan

The artistry of our winemaker Loren Miller is exemplified in the carbonic maceration process, an age-old technique that orchestrates an exceptional transformation. Picture this: whole clusters of grapes are introduced to a sealed vessel, where the magic of carbon dioxide takes center stage. Intracellular fermentation commences - an intimate process that befits the tender embrace of Mother Nature herself. As the grapes gently ferment from within, sugars and malic acids metamorphose, giving rise to a tapestry of flavors that define this wine's character. Anthocyanins and tannins migrate from the grape skins, infusing the white flesh with a delicate blush, an artistic stroke that elevates its visual allure.
