Product Description
In the Alvi’s Drift cellar, the winemaking team strongly focuses on preserving the fruit-driven expression of the grapes that go into their award winning wines. Once delivered to the cellar, hand-harvested Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are crushed and then transferred to fermentation tanks where they are left to ferment for approximately seven days. Juice is drawn off on skins to enhance the wine’s colour and flavour intensity, after which the wine is selectively matured in French oak for up to eight months prior to bottling.
