In The Cellar
All red grapes were hand picked and sorted before being crushed directly in to the tanks were skin contact is allowed for 4 hours. 6-15% of each variety were extracted to give the variety a deeper colour. The exctrated juice are then inoculated by pure yeast cultures to optimize the fermentation process at around 16 degrees celsius. The wine was allowed to naturally clarify itself under gravity prior to filtering and bottling.
