Viniculture: Grapes were picked in the early morning of the 7th March 2018. Picking decision was influenced by the flavour development in the grapes. The grapes were handpicked into small lugboxes, delivered to the cellar the next morning. The crates were emptied into the pneumatic press for whole-bunch pressing.Juice was handled reductively and inoculated with Alchemy II yeast.Fermentation took 3 weeks at temperatures between 12ºC and 14ºC. The wine was racked off its gross lees and left for about 4months on its fine lees with stirring when needed. The wine was then racked, stabilised with bentonite, crossflow-filtered and bottled.
