Viticulture and Vinification
Crushed and destemmed red grapes are sent to red fermenter vessels. They are chilled on the way and left for 12 to 36 hours to allow a certain amount of the colour to leach from the grape skins. When the colour is perfect, the pink juice is drained and sent to settling tanks to clarify further. After that the winemaking is the same as for white wine. The ferment is cool around 11 to 15 ° C and the wine is protected form the air and oxidation. Fermentation takes 2 to 3 weeks and is stopped when the wine has around 10.75 g/l of sugar remaining. Much attention is given to ensuring the wine goes to bottles fresh and fruity with a bright colour.
