Wine Information

Cellar:
The grapes are hand harvested and then cooled overnight to around 5 degrees Celsius. They are sorted on a conveyor belt before going into the press. Fermentation is allowed to proceed uninoculated in stainless steel tanks. After spending 4 months on the fine lees the wine is racked and bottled.
