Vinification
Hand picked at optimum sugar and flavour equilibrium, the grapes were kept on skins for 15 days. The ferment was pumped over and plunged twice a day to extract colour, flavour and tannin structure.
Maturation
We used French oak barriques (40% new) for maturation of up to 20 months prior to blending and bottling. This wine was cellared for a further 6 months prior to release.
