Overview

The fruit was crushed and destemmed prior to chilling and transferring to red fermenters.

The crushed fruit was then cold soaked for 24 hours before the onset of fermentation. After 6 days of fermentation to dryness, the fruit was then pressed separating the wine from the skins and seeds and transferred to a stainless-steel tank for settling before racking and filtration.

The wine was then bottled early to retain true varietal characters.
