Select ripe Viognier grapes, ensuring they are free of rot and disease. Harvest the grapes in the early morning to maintain their freshness.

Harvesting the Grapes

Crush the grapes to release the juice and then press them gently to extract the juice without too much bitterness from the skins.

Crushing and Pressing

Transfer the juice to a fermentation vessel, add wine yeast, and allow it to ferment at a controlled temperature (around 15-20°C) for about two weeks.

Fermentation

After fermentation, transfer the wine to oak barrels for aging. Allow the wine to age for at least 6 months to develop complexity and flavor.

Aging

Once the wine has aged to your liking, transfer it to bottles, and add sulfur dioxide if desired to prevent spoilage. Seal the bottles and let them rest.

Bottling

Chill the wine before serving to enhance its refreshing qualities. It pairs well with seafood, light salads, and dishes featuring peach or tropical fruits.
