Grapes were hand harvested into small crates and spent overnight in a cold room. Extensive bunch sorting by hand prior to destemming occured. The grapes were not crushed, with 10% whole bunch for complexity.
Fermentation was allowed to start naturally, with gentle punch downs twice a day by hand. Fermentation temperatures peaked at 28°C.
The wines were transferred to 500L French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation took place (14% new wood, the rest 3rd, 4th and 5th fill).
During the winemaking process, no enzymes, yeast or sulphur was used. The wine is not fined or filtered, with a small amount of sulphur added before bottling.
