Muscat Ottonell

May 26, 2016 by Corey Ameele

Winemaking notes. We lightly press our Muscat Ottonel grapes, and leave the juice in contact with the skins for several hours to maximize varietal character. Fermentation is performed in stainless steel tanks at cool temperature. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks and bottled very young to capture the wine’s aromatic qualities at their peak.
