mehrere Informationen

The Idiom 900 Series Nebbiolo is a rich and noble red wine of remarkable elegance. This Stellenbosch edition of the Italian grape variety flows into the glass in a deep garnet red colour, which gives off a rustic bouquet and subtle aromas of dried apricots and cherries. Its seductive balance between the flavours of fragrant roses, tar, hazelnut and oak bewitches the senses. Tenacious and dusty tannins indicate a wine of excellent ageing potential.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this first-class Nebbiolo were hand-picked and on arrival at the winery they underwent a two-day cold swelling phase before being provided with selected yeast cultures to start fermentation. Fermentation at a controlled temperature of 22-28°C lasted between 7-14 days. Once fermentation was complete, the mash was pressed in a small hand press with a capacity of 50 kg before malolactic fermentation was completed in 500 l French oak barrels. The wine then matured in French oak for 12-24 months before being bottled slightly refined and filtered.
