Production Details Picking is done by hand only. Grapes are destemmed and crushed before being transferred into a press where the juice is drained immediately and separated from the skins. The juice is clarified by means of flotation and racked to a fermentation tank. Fermentation is done by a few selected yeast strains at different fermentation temperatures in order to obtain a diverse aroma profile. Only two products namely bentonite and a protein fining product produced by isolating proteins from potatoes or peas, are used to fine the juice and wine. Filtering was done before bottling.
