Vineyard

Winemaking

At optimum maturity, the grapes are hand picked and transported in small crates to the winery to avoid premature grape crushing. The fruit is then gently pressed and only the free-run is used. Secondary fermentation occurs in bottle. This wine goes through some malolactic fermentation, which aids mouthfeel and adds a creamy texture. Stocked on traditional Champagne racks for up to 24 months before disgorgement.
