Vinification
The hand-picked grapes were loaded into small 20kg boxes to ensure that they arrived at the winery in pristine condition. Upon arrival they were destemmed and crushed, with fermentation taking place at controlled temperatures in stainless-steel tanks to retain the fresh varietal characters of the grapes. After fermentation was complete, the wine stayed on its fine lees for a short period of time to add extra complexity and structure.
