We grow these grapes in an old-fashioned head pruned style yielding less than 3 tons per acre of intense fruit. After HAND-PICKING the grapes, they are transported to the winery and lightly pressed. Juice is immediately separated from the skins to keep the beautiful straw color. The juice is then moved into stainless steel tanks and fermentation is started. In the tanks\n \n It continues under the winemakers careful eye to maintain proper temperature and acidity to produce the intense caramel and fruit. It remains in the stainless steel tanks till fermentation is finished. The finished wine is immediately chilled, stabilized and bottled.
