in the cellar : The grapes were handpicked at optimum ripeness and selected before de-stemming. The slightly crushed grapes are chilled down to 10-12C (cold maceration) prior to fermentation in stainless steel tanks. This ensures optimum extraction of colour and fruit flavours. During fermentation daily pump-overs are carried out to extract further colour, flavour and structure from the grapes. Mainly focussing on fruit preservation, a selection of tanks, which contains the targeted characteristics, will be made; the wine will be blended and fined. After 6 months of maturation and integration, the wine will be bottled sterile.
