Vinification |
Grapes are picked and collected into bins, stocked into a cold room at 0°C (32°F) for 5 -10 days, de-stemmed and gently crushed without oxygen. After static clarification, the yield is about 50%. Selected yeasts are inoculated; fermentation takes place at a regulated temperature of 15 °C (59 °F) for 30 days. |
Ageing |
12 month aging in oak barrels (1/3 are new, 1/3 used once, 1/3 used twice). Bottled a year after harvest. |
Pairing |
Rich fish courses, white meat and soft cheese. Any flavorful, rich dish will work. |
