Vinification of the Crimson Pinot Noir from Ata Rangi

The powerful Crimson Pinot Noir from New Zealand is a varietal wine made from the Pinot Noir grape. At optimal ripeness, the grapes for the Crimson Pinot Noir are harvested exclusively by hand, without the use of rough and less selective mechanical harvesters. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the winery, where they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small oak barrels at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 10 months in French oak barriques.
