Vinification

The fruit was machine harvested and taken to the winery in the cool of the night, where it was fermented in stainless steel tanks. No oak was used at any stage to retain the fresh fruit character in the final wine. Neutral and varietal-enhancing yeasts were used with a cool, steady fermentation to retain aromatic character. The wine spent three months on lees prior to filtering and bottling.
