Production Details Grapes were machine harvested at 22.0 balling to preserve freshness and maintain lower alcohol. The must was inoculated with biodynamic yeast and only spent 3 days on the skins with two light pump-overs per day. After gently pressing, the wine was transferred to stainless steel tanks for malo-lactic conversion. After completion the wine is age for 11 months in tank with gentle micro-oxygenation to give the wine a smooth finish.
