in the vineyard : This Chenin Blanc is made from vines with an average age of 30 years.

about the harvest: The grapes are hand picked in the morning coolness at 23° Balling and went through a second selection in the cellar to make sure that only the perfect bunches end up in the press.

in the cellar : The grapes never exceeded 21° C and during the fermentation we kept the temperatures at 15° C to ensure optimum fruitiness. The wine is fermented using selected="true" yeast cultures. After fermentation, the unwooded wine is left for 4 months on its lees before being bottled. During this period the lees was pumped through the fresh wine weekly to gain fruitiness.
