PRODUCTION POINTS: 

AFTER HARVESTING, THE GRAPES ARE IMMEDIATELY PUT INTO COLD STORAGE AT 4oC WHICH REDUCES OXIDATION.  THEY ARE THEN CRUSHED, WITH THEIR SKINS, FOR 24 HOURS.  THIS IS FOLLOWED BY FERMENTATION IN FRENCH OAK BARRELS AT A TEMPERATURE OF 14-16oC FOR AT LEAST 20 DAYS. THE LEES, OR SEDIMENT, IS STIRRED REGULARLY WEEKLY FOR 10 MONTHS. THIS SETTLES TEXTURE AND COMPLEXITY BACK INTO THE LIQUID. IT ALSO ENHANCES THE AROMA, FLAVOUR AND TASTE.
