Vineyards and Winemaking : The grapes were hand harvested from our own premium selection of vineyards in the Casablanca Valley. The canopy of the vines was managed to provide greater fruit exposure to the warm morning temperatures, but also preventing overexposure of fruits to the afternoon sun. Irrigation was controlled to allow vines to accumulate sugars, but preventing an excessive vegetative growth. The combination of soil, sun exposure and climate in each of the vineyards provide the components to the final blend and produce the distinctive characteristics of Casablanca Sauvignon blanc. The juice was fermented in vats with selected yeasts. Temperature was kept at an average of 13ºC, which produces a long and gentle fermentation process. After fermentation the wines were left on its lees for two months. Then the wines were racked, blended, gently fined and bottled.
