Winemaker Notes
We picked the grapes at their peak ripeness to retain acidity & fresh fruit flavors. This is done in order to get a balanced and fruit forward wine. We processed and crushed the Muscat grapes & left them on skins over night to extract more flavor and aromatics. We then pressed the grapes and transferred the juice to stainless steel tank for the fermentation and then aging process. We ferment at cold temperatures (50 degrees Fahrenheit) to maintain clean & crisp aromatics. Once fermentation is done the wine is aged in tank for an additional 5 months. The wine was bottled young to retain bright and fruity aromatics and flavor.
