Organic wine - preparation, Château Rioublanc, Bordeaux rosé

The grapes are harvested very carefully by hand, whole freed from stalks and panicles, lightly crushed and macerated overnight in the mash until the desired pink tint is achieved. The subsequent very gentle pressing takes 2 hours. The juice that comes out is cooled to 12 ° C and left for 24 hours. This is followed by temperature-controlled fermentation, during which the sugar contained in the grapes is completely broken down. Then this rosé organic wine matures in underground tanks. Before filling bottles, a filtration with sterile filters made of cellulose fibers is carried out.
