What’s In It: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
How It Was Made:
Harvesting is by hand with bunch selection, destemming and sorting of the berries. The grapes thus selected undergo cold pre-fermentation maceration for about 48 hours. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature, partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in wooden vats, resulting in maceration on the skins for 10-15 days. Upon racking, the resulting wine is placed in new, fine-grained French oak barrels, where it undergoes malolactic fermentation and subsequent maturation for a duration of about 18-22 months with frequent bâtonnage. Maturation in the bottle continues for at least 18 months.
