Winemakers Notes
Fruit was de-stemmed, gently pressed with a portion given extended skin contact to extract pungent varietal aromas. The juice was cool fermented with selected yeasts to maximise and retain as much varietal flavour
and aroma as possible. Lees aging has helped develop the palate weight and further enhanced the intensity and structure of this wine.
