Juice was obtained by subjecting the whole bunches to a gentle tank press. After allowing the juice to settle overnight the clean juice was separated and wine yeast added. The temperature during fermentation was maintained at 14°C. In order to obtain the desired sugar level for an off-dry wine, concentrated grape sugar was added. Protein stabilization was achieved with a bentonite fining whereafter the wine was subjected to tartrate stabilisation.
