WINE MAKING
The grapes were handpicked and transported to the cellar for processing. Whole berry fermentation commenced in a stainless-steel tank with twice daily pump-overs to ensure the delicate extraction of tannins. The total skin contact time was around 21 days before pressing. Malo-lactic fermentation followed 300L French oak barrels. 40% first fill French oak barrels were used. A barrel selection of only the best barrel were made for the final blend. Total barrel maturation period of 18 months.
