Production Details EDITION NR. 19, SKU 201681. The grapes were harvested and strictly sorted by hand at the end of October, yielding healthy fruit. They were gently crushed and macerated on their skins for several hours. The must underwent slow, cool spontaneous fermentation, followed by gentle maturation in a large wooden cask and an extended period on the lees. The producer recommends serving at 10–12 °C; this range is retained here rather than converted to a single serving-temperature value.
Food Pairing Fresh, spicy dishes, including skrei fillet in coconut-lime broth with roasted potatoes and spinach; turkey steaks with Mediterranean oven-roasted vegetables; or orange-fennel salad with fried prawns. The producer also recommends decanting and serving from a large glass.
