Grand Duc Nobless 2016 - Glenwood

An intensive 4-stage harvest selection, in which only fine early grater with sugar between 34 and 36 degrees were selected. Before pressing, the berries were subjected to a further selection process to ensure that only 100% fine early roasts were pressed. The pressing took place over a period of three days with a minimum recovery of 92 liters per ton of semillon. The juice was bottled and placed in small 225 liter oak barrels. There was no yeast vaccination and the juice naturally removed up to 128 g of residual sugar per liter. The wine has been in barrel for 3 years before stabilization and bottling. A better harvest compared to 2019 due to favourable post-harvest conditions, sufficient water for irrigation and moderate temperatures during maturation. The color development was very good with softer tannins.
