Winery | The vintage was very dry but relatively cool. Luckily, the frost damage was minimal, and a combination of moderate day temperatures and cool evenings resulted in a relatively good yield and wonderful flavour concentration. The fermentation takes place in oak barrels, after which the wines are aged in barrels for 18 months. |
