Production Details The fruit was harvested in the early hours of the morning to retain freshness and acidity. Skin contact was limited to six hours and the free-run juice settled overnight before inoculation with carefully selected yeast strains. Fermentation took place in stainless-steel tanks under controlled temperatures between 12° and 14°C. A small portion of the Sémillon was fermented in French-oak barrels to add complexity to the wine, which matured for 3 months on the lees before bottling.
