Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for the Babylonstoren Chardonnay were cold pressed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks for the first three days, after which the wine was transferred to 300 l French oak barrels for further fermentation. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was left on the lees for 3-4 months, with stirring every three weeks (batonnage). The wine then matured for a further 12 months in French barriques before being bottled.
