about the harvest: The grapes for this delicious blend were handpicked.

in the cellar : 

After harvest, the grapes were transported to the cellar in small lug boxes. On arrival at the winery, the bunches underwent sorting on a vibrating table, followed by de-stemming, then further hand-sorting to remove any remaining stems.

This attention to detail ensured that only the highest quality berries were selected, then lightly crushed into a satellite tank which was hoisted and opened above stainless steel fermentation tanks. Inoculation with a French yeast was made after a three day cold soak. Fermentation was slow and gentle. Maturation in French oak barrels.
