WINEMAKER NOTES
“Fruit is harvested late in the season when its flavours are fully developed, and the naturally high acidity levels reduced. Fruit is tipped directly into the press then crushed before being drained to tank to settle, then racked to stainless steel and oak/acacia barrels (30%) for fermentation. Regular lees stirring once dry and matured for six months to help with flavour development before bottling in spring.” Warren Proft, winemaker
