Harvest:Vintage 2020 has delivered wines of amazing quality. The grapes were hand-harvested on February 26th.

Winemaking:The grapes were then pressed and the juice was briefly settled prior to racking to fermentation. The juice was entirely wild fermented with native yeast and portions of the ferment were undertaken in seasoned French oak hogsheads, concrete egg tank and stainless steel tank. Partial lees stirring was employed post-fermentation for added texture and complexity. After a period of maturation, the wine was blended and bottled.

Viticulture:Elenore is from a single vineyard of Semillon on the Kalleske property that was planted in 1980. The old vines are low-yielding and the soil is shallow sand with clay subsoil.
