Production information

Producer: The Wine-Farer

The Wine-Farer Series is named in recognition of the journey taken by wine drinkers when they encounter different grape varieties. The winemakers don’t believe in the constraints of fashionable grapes and instead focus simply on well-made, enjoyable wine.

Production note

White grapes were carefully selected and sorted before lightly pressed. Clear juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks for 15 days. After fermentation wine were sulphured and left on the lees for 4 months. Red grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks with a carefully planned pump over schedule to preserve fruit character and not to over extract tannins. Malolactic fermentation was done on staves in tanks and took 6 months.
