Remhoogte Free To Be Riesling 2024
R250.00
(R1,499.00 for 6 x 750ml)
Produced from a small vineyard up on the mountain on well-drained and exposed shale ridge at 350m above sea level. The wine is fermented with the wild/indigenous yeasts in a stainless steel tank. The wine has a fresh, zesty entry with sweet fruit and a gentle waxy texture on the mid palate, offset by a limey acid bringing freshness and length.
Sorting: Bunches sorted when hand harvested and on a conveyor belt before the press.
Fermentation: The grapes are destemmed and very gently pressed (450 – 500 litres per ton recovery). The juice is allowed to settle roughly overnight before fermentation is allowed to proceed uninoculated in a stainless-steel tank. The wine is racked and bottled straight after alcoholic fermentation.
Maturation: None. Bottled straight after primary fermentation. No lees contact. The wine will mature in bottle.
