Production Details Organically farmed estate fruit was manually harvested in a first pass before the harvest for the still wines. Both varieties were direct-pressed and fermented at low temperature in stainless-steel tanks, followed by spontaneous malolactic fermentation. The wine rested on fine lees until bottling the following February for secondary fermentation by the traditional method, then aged about 16 months on lees sur lattes before disgorgement.
