Cliff Lede has taken a bold new direction in the past year, ending his relationships with consulting enologists Michel Rolland and Philippe Melka and putting his wines solely in the hands of his full-time team, including director of winemaking and viticulture Remi Cohen and new winemaker Jack Tynan.According to estate president Jack Bittner, the objective is to create a legacy by having all the knowledge and experience in-house.Alcohol levels here tend to be high, and the estate is now keeping more foliage on the vines to moderate sun exposure.In 2011, Cliff Lede added a more efficient optical sorter, which senses color and is therefore able to eliminate underripe grapes (as well as shriveled berries in hot years).The result, according to Bittner, was that the estate could compress the 2011 harvest and do a better job picking."The challenge in 2011 was to preserve fruit," said winemaker Tynan."There was less emphasis on extraction and our fermentations were shorter and cooler, with fewer punchdowns."Lede's many vineyard blocks, most of them around the winery on the Yountville Crossroad and others just across the Silverado Trail, are named after classic rock tunes, with the late '60s featured prominently.
