Winemaking | Selected from our organically certified Pinot Gris from Annangrove Park at 700m, and our Gewürztraminer from Balmoral at 900m. The Pinot Gris was hand-picked on the 10th of March 2023 in the cool of the morning. The Gewürztraminer was hand-picked on the 5th of April 2023. Placed into slotted half tonne bins and taken directly to the winery these whole bunches were transferred to covered fermenters. Wild fermentation started while the grapes were fully intact. After 14 days, carbonic maceration was complete and the fruit was gently pressed to stainless steel. The wine sat on lees for 6 months in tank. Unfined and unfiltered. The wine only passed through a rough rock filter prior to bottling to remove large solids. Some sediment remains in the bottle. Bottled in December 2023.
