The Somerston portfolio offers three different expressions: Highflyer Wines are made from high-quality purchased California fruit; Priest Ranch is a blend of wines from selected vineyard blocks; and in good vintages, Somerston will release a single vineyard, limited production wine. Estate fruit that is not used for Somerston is sold to some of Napa Valley?s most renowned winemakers ? David Ramey, Heidi Barrett, and David Phinny ? and well-respected wineries like Biale, Caymus, Duckhorn, Orin Swift, Pahlmeyer and Viader.
The grapes for this wine were hand-picked and delivered to the winery. Then they were de-stemmed, sorted, and pumped into a tank for a ve-day cold soak at 50 degrees. When the fermentation began, we pumped over the tank twice per day. Native yeast fermentation lasted for 16 days, followed by a short heated extended maceration of 3 days. e free run was drained from the tank overnight. The wine was barreled down into 70% new French oak and 30% once used French oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation occurred naturally in the barrel. This wine was barrel aged for 24 months and bottled un filtered.
