WINE MAKING PROCESS
Rålund Exclusive Torrt Vin Av Blåbär is produced from wild-harvested blueberries from Norrland, Sweden. The berries are frozen upon receipt and then thawed for processing. Water and KRAV-certified granulated sugar are added along with wine yeast to initiate fermentation, which typically lasts 20-25 days and ferments out all residual sugar, achieving an alcohol content of 12-13%. The wine is tasted and may be lightly sweetened before filtration. Post-fermentation, the wine is aged in tanks for about one month, followed by a few weeks of bottle rest before release. The producer prioritizes sustainable practices, aiming to minimize environmental impact by using wild ingredients and striving for the highest level of sustainability in wine production.
