Vinification
Once at the winery, the grapes were crushed, destemmed, must chilled and pressed. Half of the juice was in contact with the skins for approximately 6 hours. The juice was then floated, warmed and inoculated with an aromatic yeast. A cool fermentation followed and when the wine was deemed in balance (in residual sugar, alcohol and acidity) the ferment was stopped. The wine was then stabilised, filtered and bottled.
