Only the first light pressings were used. The juice was settled at 5 °C for 48 hours and then racked. A 40% portion underwent wild fermentation and the balance were inoculated with Vin 13 and CY3079 yeast in one third each of first-, second- and third-fill 500 litre Allier French oak barrels, using three different coopers. Fermentation continued for on average 26 days, the temperature of fermentation ranging between 12 and 20 °C. The wine was aged on its fine lees and malolactic fermentation was prevented to preserve the finer flavours. After a total barrel maturation period of 11 months the wine was racked, protein stabilised and bottled with a fine sheet filtration.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Alcohol: 13.19 vol %Total acid: 6.1 g\/lpH: 3.32Residual sugar: 3.6 g\/lVolatile acidity: 0.49 g\/l\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45134051442870,"sku":"46232","price":4.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/saronsbergviognier750ml_46232_01_7b59997e_a8fab4e5-fc68-4cdc-8949-9dccf5e3e57a.jpg?v=1779195439","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/saronsbergviognier750ml-46232","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
