Vinification Details
Once at the winery, fruit was crushed and cold soaked for four to six days. Fermentation on skins
occurred for 16 to 29 days. The winemaking team treat ferments gently to avoid over-extraction to
produce a soft gentle Pinot Noir. Yeasts that can handle high fermentation temperatures are chosen,
this helps to stabilise colour as much as possible & to heighten flavours in the wine. The aim is to
extract as much colour as possible but not extract too much tannin, a balancing act our winemakers
have mastered. The wine was aged on good quality clean lees in French oak for six months to help
build natural sweetness and texture.Please drink responsibly
