This past week we started racking our 2007 wines. Racking is done 2x a year at Lost Canyon Winery. Racking is when we take the wine out of the barrels, put the wine in a tank, wash the barrels and then put the wine back in the barrels. We started with the 2007 Pinot noir. This year we had the different clones that make up each of the wines ripen at different times so we had many separate lots. We blended the clones together at this point and were able to taste the difference of keeping the clones separately. This was very interesting. The wines are tasting fantastic!
Thanks to our volunteers for coming out and helping with this process.
