MMXX Chardonnay (2020)

Ale Fermented in Oak
Native Refermentation of Grapes from French Creek Vineyard
Prosser, Washington

This 2020 harvest beer was made through a native fermentation of Chardonnay grapes from French Creek Vineyard on the slopes of the Yakima River.
Grapes from massal selections of the original 1981 plantings along with Musque 809 clone were destemmed and crushed and kept in contact with most of the skins for some time before being pressed and then blended with well aged and dry hopped spelt beer and young beer brewed with spelt and einkorn.

This beer was refermented to condition in the bottle with raw Washington Star Thistle and Knapweed honey.
