WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Post House Stamp of Chenin is produced from 100% Chenin Blanc grapes. Following crushing, the grapes are left on their skins for one hour before settling for a day. Fermentation is initiated with natural yeasts in barrels. The wine is aged on its lees, with a stirring regime that evolves over time. Clarification is achieved using bentonite, and the wine is bottled without filtration. Aging involves a split between new French and American oak (10%) and used barrels (90%).
