A cool, wet spring punctuated with frost set back the harvest. Warm summer days and a beautiful fall enabled our collection of vineyards to reach full maturity. Hand-harvested on the 13th and 14th of October, the whole bunches were pressed gently and sent to tank to begin their wild yeast fermentation. Once initiated, the wines were moved to French oak barrels to finish fermentation and were then bottled without filtration one year later.

This was the wine that started Hundred Suns. Winemaker Grant Coulter reflects on the heat spell in late August, the wines started out giving initially and then tightened up in the barrel. Then relaxed in the tank, loosening up again in the bottle. There's an immediate elegance to the best wines from 2023. An unbelievable wine for $35. Deep violet florals, and a cool core of blue fruits, with a round blue marble in my mouth.

Ripe red berry fruits glide across the palate, guided by juicy acidity. The finish is medium in length and pleasing, leaving a cool-toned sensation and lingering inner florals.
