This is made 100% from young-vine Pinot Noir and some Dornfelder, the grapes of which had no juice because of youth and the dryness of 2022. So instead of this being a mash of old skins and stems, it is in fact fresh grapes, with water added and then everything pressed and fermented. Does this switcharoo, new instead of used grapes, make a big difference? Honestly, I have no idea. But this is fresh AF and super low in alcohol, only 7.5%.
