Harvest has begun at Paumanok! Yesterday we started with Pinot Noir for our Rosé de Pinot, produced in accordance with the traditional Champagne method. To keep the alcohol level of the base wine low, an early harvest is required. Pinot Noir is an early-ripening variety. Add the two together and we get a very early start to our vintage.
Kareem and the team were joined by his nephew Alex, the third generation of Massouds to work on bringing in the harvest at Paumanok. ✨
