More Information

In the cellar

The grapes were harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. Each vineyard was individually vinified. Once the grapes were crushed, the mash was cooled and fermentation took place for 5-10 days at 26 degrees celsius. Upon completion of malolactic fermentation, the wine was matured in steel tanks, as well as 300 - litre French barrels for 10 - 14 months using a combination of new, second and third fill French oak. The final blend was based on a meticulous barrel selection.

In the vineyard
