Vinification
The grapes spent a few hours on skins to extract the appealing soft pink colour then were carefully pressed. After settling, the juice was fermented in 100 per cent stainless steel tanks at cooler temperatures to retain fruit flavour and freshness. At the end of fermentation the wine was stabilised, filtered and prepared for bottling.
