Hither & Yon Malbec 2018

The Malbec fruit was hand-picked and delivered to the winery March 16, gently de-stemmed and crushed to 2 x 2 tonne open top fermenters. Once fermentation had commenced the must was gently pumped over 2 times every 24 hours and kept between 22-26 degrees. Primary  fermentation took place for 14 days. Once the wine was dry, it was pressed to tank where the free run juice and pressings were combined,
then transferred to 4-5 year old French hogsheads. After 10 months of oak maturation the wine was racked off lees, to tank just prior to bottling. Following micro screen filtration, bottling took place at the winery on March 7, 2019. 527 six packs produced. Sealed under Stelvin screw cap
