DeMorgenzon Roussanne 2017

Highly concentrated Stellenbosch Roussanne is gently crushed and given a short skin contact before an extended slow pressing. This yields a juice with good levels of grape tannin and an excellent chemical balance. Natural fermentation in French oak cask follows, with partial malolactic fermen- tation and a maturation on gross lees for 12 months. The wine is stabilised and settled naturally, with minimal filtration at bottling.
