WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Grand Sud Colombard Sauvignon involves gentle pressing of the grapes, followed by fermentation at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks. This approach is designed to retain the fresh, aromatic qualities of the Colombard and Sauvignon Blanc varietals. The wine is then aged in stainless steel to maintain its crispness and fruit-forward profile, without the influence of oak. Harvest timing is managed to ensure the grapes are at their peak for aromatic expression.
