Dry White Varieties (<5g/l or up to 9g/l if TA <2g/l lower) (Other than above-mentioned classes)

The vineyards used in this premium niche wine are planted on 3 different sites with aspects ranging from East to North-East, each contributing complexity and character to the final blend. The vine canopies are moderate in vigour to allow sunlight onto the bunches and aid the development of beautiful ripe sun-kissed flavours. All bunches were hand-picked into small lug boxes with the respective components selected according to bunch size and colour where the smallest, ripest bunches were harvested first. During a period of 7 days the various styles were isolated and harvested a fraction at a time and destemmed in the early morning without crushing the berries. The juice was settled for 48 hours, then gravity fed to 31% new 400 litre French oak barrels. All barrels started natural fermentation before being inoculated with a commercial yeast strain to ensure a clean ferment to dryness. The various component fractions were matured separately for 9 months before a final blend was created using only the very best barrels.
