Berton Vineyard Foundstone Pinot Grigio 750ml

Harvest occurred in the cool of the night to avoid the summer heat. Fruit was destemmed and chilled to our bag presses before the resultant juice underwent oxidative treatment to remove any bitter tannin and red colour imparted by the Pinot Grigio grapes red skins. Clarification and yeast inoculation occurred shortly after harvest with fermentation starting within 48 hours. The juice underwent a slow fermentation at cool temperatures of 14? ? 16?C. After a short period on yeast lees the wine was blended, stabilised and filtered for bottling in showcasing its fresh regional and varietal fruit flavours.
