Overview

The 2021 growing season was mild and dry throughout, allowing the fruit to ripen slowly to its full potential.

Picked at optimal ripeness before crushed into a 10 tonne open fermenter. The fruit was then cold steeped for 3 days before primary fermentation was allowed to kick off. The skins were gently turned over once every 24 hours for 7 days before it was pressed out via our basket press. The wine was then transferred to older French oak hogsheads for 10 months before bottling..
