Winemaking
Sourced from Merlot on the Wills Domain vineyard, this fruit was picked in the cool of the morning and immediately whole bunch pressed to minimize the pick-up colour and phenolics. Following settling the juice was racked and fermented with Zymaflore Spark, a yeast which is ideal for Sparkling base wines. The juice was fermented cool on a low level of solids, bentonite fined and cold stabilized after fermentation before being tiraged.
Food Pairing
Antipasto, canapés, raw fish.
