    GLADSTONE URLAR Rose

    The grapes were harvested, and the crushed berries were soaked in the juice briefly for colour and flavour extraction before being pressed to tank, settled, and racked for fermentation. Most underwent fermentation in stainless steel, but a portion was fermented in aged French oak barriques with natural yeast. In addition to this technique, a further portion of Clone 5 Pinot Noir was hand harvested and the whole clusters were placed in a vat, the tank was sealed for the berries to begin fermentation by carbonic maceration which is a natural fermentation within each berry. This method provides wonderful aromas and a lovely texture on the palate and certainly lends to the wines intense and interesting aroma.
