Traditional crushing and destemming is undertaken before pressing and de-juicing, then immediate chilling to cold settle and remove any solids. The cold juice is then racked to stainless steel fermenters and warmed to ambient temperature before inoculation with selected yeast strains and cold fermentation. At the completion of fermentation, the wine is racked from the fermentation lees and stablised prior to early bottling to retain the fresh and vibrant characters. This wine has been sealed with Stelvin screw cap closures as an added assurance of flavour purity. <BR><BR>Paretai Sauvignon Blanc is produced in a wine style that is most suited to early consumption. To fully appreciate the fresh vibrancy of this wine it should be consumed within 24 months of its production unless more mature sauvignon blanc characters are desired. <BR><BR>Distinctive aromas of gooseberry and passionfruit dominate with hints of lime and tropical fruits. Layers of tropical fruit flavours are enhanced by the well balanced and refreshing zingy acid and lingering seductive finish. <BR></P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/calwine" TITLE="California Wine Wines">California Wine Wines</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://www.calwine.com">California Wine</A> <BR>California Wine Online Store powered by Nexternal <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="shopping cart software">shopping cart software</A>
