especially when cooked in red wine.

Portions of Wildberry Vineyard Cabernets were fermented in static and open fermenters. Time on skins ranged from 1 to 2 weeks to emphasise softness and freshness. The portions were pressed separately to seasoned oak barrels and matured for less than 3 months to retain fruit expression. After barrel blending, the wine was clarified with yeast and is vegan friendly. Oak 100 % French seasoned.
