- Vinification
- The grapes were hand-picked on the 14th of March. No acid added, amazing natural acidity and low pH. The grapes was crushed and the free run was taken with the pressing going elsewhere. The juice was cold settled before inoculation – no lees. Cool and slow fermentation period where it was closely monitored. Wine was fined and filtered before bottling. Matured for 3 months in stainless steel. The wine was bottled on the 30th of June, fresh & bright.
