Growing Season

Vinification
Hand harvested grapes late in season, to ensure full ripeness and concentration of flavours. 5-7 days on skins, before pressed off and chilled to arrest fermentation. A neutral spirt was added to the base wine. After 1 week of settling, the fortified wine was then racked to older barrels for the next 12 years for maturation. Barrels stored in a warm shed to enhance ageing.
