At 78 years-old, Bill, affectionately known as “Papa” to his three sons and nine grandchildren, continues to be the caretaker of the Carlisle block at Atoosa’s Vineyard. We’re not sure what kind of mojo he has going on out there but it seems to be working! Picked October 9th, yields were a touch over 2 tons to the acre. Thirty-three percent of the fruit was not destemmed to increase complexity and structure. Aged in all French oak, 27% new, and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
