Winemaking After picking the grapes and destemming them completely, Tom submerges the cap for about 10 days to extract color and phenolic flavors, as well as to moderate Nebbiolo’s famously firm tannins. He also bleeds off to further intensify the juice. After the fermentation naturally begins, the cap submersion is removed and daily pumpovers are performed until the alcoholic fermentation is completed. At this stage, the new wine is put under cap submersion again for about 30 days before pressing and barrel down in neutral 300L Austrian oak barrels for about 18 months of ageing.

The Story

The 2022 Nightshade Nebbiolo comes from the Ciel du Cheval Vineyard on Red Mountain in the Columbia Valley. Ciel du Cheval has produced some of the most well-respected and achieving wines from a Washington vineyard. The Nebbiolo from this site is a clear example of the complexity and distinction that is possible from a New World vineyard for this notoriously challenging grape to grow outside of the Piemonte region of Italy.
