Manufacturing
The vines from which the Chardonnay grapes for this wine come grow in the well-drained fields of the Coastal Region, where the soil is characterized by slate and granite. The grapes are harvested in the early morning hours in mid-February. Immediately after the harvest, the grapes are brought to the winery, where they are de-stemmed and pressed carefully to avoid crushing the seeds. The must rests overnight before the grape pomace is filtered off and the must is transferred to stainless steel fermentation tanks. Here, the wine undergoes a controlled fermentation at a low temperature of approx. 18 degrees, this process typically takes 3-4 weeks. After fermentation, the wine ages in oak for five months before it is bottled and released to the market.
CO2 – Environmentally friendly
Transport of wine in bulk from the country of origin to bottling in Denmark constitutes a significantly reduced CO2 load compared to wine imported in bottles. In recognition of the reduced CO2 footprint, but also the assurance of the wine’s quality as well as the economic advantages of transporting wine in bulk, bulk wine forms an ever-increasing part of our business.
