| Wine maker notes |
| Pinot Grigio’s grey color creates unique winemaking challenges. The fruit is gently
destemmed, then sent straight away to the press. Rather than inflating the bladders within
the press and putting the squeeze on the grapes, we simply roll the press, letting the weight
of the fruit crush the grapes themselves, releasing delicate ester-filled juice. Even the lightest
press would add too much color from the skins to the juice. The fermentation is carried
out in stainless steel at very low temperatures. The finished wine is held cold until bottling,
and malolactic fermentation is prevented to preserve fresh acidity. |
