Vinifikation
At Vergelegen, all grapes are hand-picked and then stored in a cold container at -10°C for 48 hours. The cool grapes (8-10°C) are then carefully sorted on a combination of vibration tables and slow-moving conveyors, with 1.5-3 tons sorted per hour. The grapes are destemmed but not crushed, and the must is cold macerated for 7 days, followed by a 4-day spontaneous fermentation, after which cultured yeast is added to complete the fermentation. The young red wine was then left on the skins for another 6-7 weeks before being transferred to 20% new barrels for 16 months.
