Vinification details: Made in a reductive style - without contact with oxygen to preserve the fresh, fruity character. The fruit was destemmed, lightly crushed and cooled through a heat exchanger and pressed. The must was clarified and fermented with neutral yeasts at low temperatures of 10 to 12°C, fermenting at 0.5 to 1°Baume per day. The ferment stopped at 2 to 3 grams per litre residual sugar. It was then protein stabilised, cold stabilised, medium filtered, blended and bottled.
