80% barrel fermented, 20% stainless steel. Of the 80% in barrel, half were these new barrels from their own forest after three years of leaching new oak out. They ferment a small portion of the QbA in new barrels to wear them in. Herbal and dense. He thinks the oak brings structure and creaminess and roundness. Certainly not painful acidity here.
