This was the first harvest of Pinot Gris grapes
There were two ferments. The grapes were whole bunch pressed
Some lees were taken to fermentation
Fermented with an indigenous yeast strain
Coolish fermentation between 12-18°celsius
15% barrel fermentation
Rested on its yeast lees for 4 months
Some residual sugar retained to balance the natural acidity
Minimal fining, wine has undergone filtration due to its residual sweetness

| Viticulture Notes: |
|
Winter pruning of the Pinot Gris vines takes place through June. The vines are pruned to two canes and bud numbers limited to ensure quality fruit for the following season. Leaf plucking in mid-summer allows for plenty of sun on the grapes which encourages them to ripen and develop before harvest in April.
