Preparation

Wine Making Process

1. Harvesting the Grapes

Select and harvest ripe Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from the vineyard. Ensure that the grapes are healthy and free of defects.

2. Crushing and Destemming

Crush the harvested grapes to release their juices and separate the stems. This can be done using a wine press or manually.

3. Fermentation

Transfer the crushed grapes to a fermentation vessel. Add water and sugar to the grape juice. Sprinkle yeast over the mixture and stir gently to combine. Cover the vessel with a cloth and let it sit at room temperature for about 7-10 days, stirring daily.

4. Pressing

Once fermentation is complete, press the mixture to separate the liquid (wine) from the solids (grape skins). Use a wine press for this step.

5. Aging

Transfer the wine to a clean, sterilized aging vessel and add oak chips. Allow the wine to age for at least 6 months. Store in a cool, dark place, and check periodically for taste.

6. Bottling

Once the aging process is complete, filter the wine to remove any sediment. Bottle the wine in clean, sterilized bottles, and seal with corks. Store bottles upright for a few days and then on their side to keep the cork moist.
