Winemaking
The grapes were hand picked into 10 kilogram trays, destemmed and cold soaked at 8°C for five days to extract aroma and colour, which is especially important for thin-skinned Pinot Noir. The grapes were then fermented for seven days at controlled temperatures of 25°C and kept on their skins to give structure and colour for another 20 days. A small portion was racked from the tank early to ferment without its skins, in order to preserve the fresh fruit character. After malolactic conversion, the wine was aged in a mixture of new and used French oak barrels for 10-12 months.
