70% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Gris, 10% Riesling.  All from the Elkton AVA, organic transitioning, Gillirose Vineyard fruit was picked on the same morning and destemmed together into a 2.5 ton stainless fermenter to be co-fermented as a chillable red wine. The covered fermenter was left outside with no temperature control to take advantage of the diurnal swings in ambient temperature. Initially peculiar on the nose, as the aromatics of the white fruit in the blend do not match the appearance of the red wine. "Babel" is named after the great scattering of languages from the biblical story of the eponymous tower.
