Parcels of Muscadelle are harvested at naturally high levels of sugar, grapes are crushed, destemmed and cooled to 10C on the way to open fermentation vessels. Batches are pumped over twice daily during two days of cold soak. Yeasts are added for a slow vinification, followed by draining and press after a single Baume drop in sugar level. Juices are fortified with neutral grape Spirit to arrest the ferments, settled and racked off solids. Batches are heat and cold stabilised, coarse earth filtered and transferred to a collection of well seasoned oak barrels for up to thirty years maturation. Upon completion, the best barrels are determined and marked for inclusion into the final Show Reserve Muscat. Alcohol 18.5%
