VINEYARDS
This wine is made from two different regions
and different vineyards. The idea is to obtain
different flavours
and character and balance it
out in a bottle.
WINEMAKING
The style of winemaking can be tasted in the wine, soft, easy,
smooth style, with no harsh tannins. The grapes ripened mid
season. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks with
daily pump overs to obtain the colour from the skins. Malolactic
fermentation was encouraged whilst on the skins. The pressing
of the skins took place three weeks after fermentation. The
different wines were blended immediately. This wine was barrel
matured for 14 months before bottling.
