APPASSIMENTO PACKAGE

All of these wines were produced in the Appassimento style. The hand harvested grapes are dried in our greenhouse prior to fermentation. The bunches are carefully laid on custom built racks and dried for 4-7 days. This essentially dehydrates the grapes (to an extent) concentrating the flavours, sugars, and acidity. These wines as a result are full bodied, very aromatic and deep in colour.
