WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of Rålund Classic Torrt vin av Blåbär begins with blueberries sourced from Swedish forests, which are frozen after harvest to preserve their quality. As blueberries have insufficient natural sugar for winemaking, water and sugar are added. The fermentation process occurs in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures for about a month. The wine is classified as dry, with a residual sugar content of 0.7 g/100ml. The producer, IDUNN Norsjö Wine & Co, emphasizes ecologically certified production methods.
