WINE MAKING PROCESS
Terra Scania Barrique is produced from 100% Solaris grapes, hand-harvested to ensure quality. The must is fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, utilizing cultured and neutral yeast. The wine undergoes a 6-month aging period before bottling. While the primary aging vessel is stainless steel, the 'Barrique' designation suggests some influence from oak, contributing to its character. The winery, Vingården i Klagshamn, is committed to ecological viticulture, employing practices such as fertilization with local seaweed and horse manure. They also focus on manual vineyard work and have experimented with grape varieties suitable for the Swedish climate.
