Pinot Pinot Carbo Carbo.
2nd edition: Pinot Blanc + Pinot Noir
Fermenting liquid Pinot Blanc was added to freshly picked Pinot Noir bunches to undergo some version of a carbonic maceration.

Jocko!
Sheās back and better than ever š
After a tough year battling smoke in 2021, Jockoās crop this year is looking beautiful and bountiful.
Thanks to my pick crew and yay for Kaiās first harvest! š«
Fully destemmed, the wine will undergo a short time on skins before being pressed off to become a light and juicy red š
Griesling Goodness!
Big props to Al for growing the most divine fruit and to my many helpers that make these Else picks possible.
This yearās Griesling got a destem, a couple hours soaking on skins and a verrrry long basket press š¤
Cara!
@cara.overholt joined us last week and fully submersed herself into our Else/Echo Bay family.
We are already missing her shiny personality and go-for-it spirit. Thanks for helping out with absolutely everything and canāt wait to see you next year š
Harvest has come in hot and heavy so will be bombarding you with whatās been happening this past week!
Hereās a shoutout to @mnml.wine who along with being the most lovely human being, helped start harvest off right! Winery cleaner, sampler, picker, processor extraordinaire. Thanks Kate, youāre the best āØ
