Tokara Siberia Chardonnay 2015
The grapes were hand-picked into small shallow picking crates and placed in a cold store overnight. The following day the cold grapes (6°C) were whole bunch pressed to a stainless steel tank for overnight settling. The settled juice was moved to barrel for fermentation which took place spontaneously. The wine spent a total of 11 months in 228 litre barrels of which 33% were new. Only sulphur dioxide was used in the production of this wine, there was no fining, stabilisation or filtration.
