WINEMAKING & MATURATION
The grapes were harvested from early to mid-February, bright and early in the morning hours while they were still cool (which helps concentrate the flavours and aromas) at 21.5° Balling. After crushing and pressing, the free run juice was clarified by flotation, transferred to a fermentation tank, and inoculated with selected dry yeasts for a cool-fermentation of 18 to 20 days at 14°C. Following fermentation, the wines aged briefly before being racked, blended and prepared for bottling.
