Vinification
The grapes were handpicked, allowing for careful selection in the vineyard. After arrival at the winery, the grapes were destemmed and crushed, and underwent two weeks of pre-fermentation maceration to enhance the red fruit aromatics. Fermentation took place with indigenous yeasts in open top stainless-steel tanks. The wine was then aged in old Serbian and French 225 litres oak barrels for 10 months prior to bottling without fining or filtration.
