Description
Each of the eight parcels of fruit were gently de-stemmed into both wooden & concrete open top fermenters where they were carefully nurtured for 6-7 days on skins. After basket pressing the wine was run directly into both new and old French barriques where they spent 30 months with minimal racking. During the final ‘assemblage’ a small addition (3.5%) of estate grown Viognier was added and the wine was later bottled without the use of filtration or fining.
