Colour extracting took no longer than 2-3 hours before the juice was left to settle for 48 hours at around 13-14˚ Celsius. The clear juice was drawn off the lees and inoculated with a specific commercial yeast strain. Fermentation was controlled at around 14˚ Celsius and took around 10 days to complete.
