Vinification
Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were used to make the Blanc de Noir. Once these grapes reached the cellar, it was de-stemmed and lightly pressed. Pressure in the press was kept to a minimum and prevented excessive colour extraction. To avoid prolonged skin contact, the juice was instantly drained which created the light onion skin shade. After two days of settling, the clean juice was extracted leaving the sediment behind. The juice was fermented at 14 degrees Celsius in stainless steel tanks. Finally the Cabernet Sauvignon was protein- and cold stabilized before bottling.
