Vineyard

West-and North-facing slopes between 200-240m above sea level.

Vinification

Fermented in overhead retort-shaped, stainless steel fermentors. Pump-overs were done three times daily during fermentation. Selected tanks received extended maceration on the skins after fermentation. The use of gravity and gentle pressing ensure full-flavoured wines with soft, balanced tannins. The wine was racked into barrels where it underwent malolactic fermentation.

Maturation

After further racking it spent 18 months in new and used French oak barrels, before being lightly filtered prior to bottling.
