Vine-Winemaking Old bush vines planted on weathered topsoil of granite and friable clay subsoil. Yield up to 400 kg per hectare. The grapes are harvested by hand, crushed, detached and gently pressed. After pressing, the juice settles in stainless tanks overnight. The clear juice accumulates in its fermentation tank where
the juice is inoculated with specially selected yeast strains to portray true varietal characters. After fermentation, the wine was stored in full tanks on the lees until bottling. Before bottling, the wine is stabilized and filtered.
Characteristics Ripe quince, pineapple and stone fruit with some interesting savory undertones. Light-textured mouthfeel, with a hint of sweetness and balancing the crisp acid, results in a lively finish. Juicy poolside sipper, also a winner with alfresco dining.
