Emme Wines Grenache We Touch In Silhouette Shake Ridge Ranch Amador County 2023 750ml

Organic. 100% Grenache. Shake Ridge Ranch is a magical vineyard, and the Grenache from here is extra special – light in color, beautiful aromatics, but with a consistently strong tannic backbone that makes the wine very ageworthy. The Grenache was fully foot crushed, and left to ferment 100% whole cluster in tank. After a short maceration of 5 days on its skins, it was pressed, and the wine was returned to tank to continue fermenting for another 10 days. Once fermentation was fully through, the Grenache was barreled down to neutral oak barriques and one puncheon, where it aged through the winter, spring and summer. In early August, all the barriques and puncheon of Grenache were racked to tank for bottling. Indigenous yeast fermentation. 25 ppm SO2 added at bottling, no other additions, unfined and unfiltered.
