Notes from Becky Wasserman Co.:
"High limestone content, thin soil. Farming is practicing organic (not certified).
100% de-stemmed, 10-day cold maceration, 10-20-day ambient yeast fermentation in tank with no added SO2. Aged 15-18 months in barrels (20% new). No fining, no filtration, SO2 added after malolactic fermentation (20-25 ppm free, 40-50 ppm total)."
