En Cavale Description
All fruit is fermented on their skins for about three weeks. The Sauvignon Blanc component was harvested in early August 2021 and after fermentation was pressed to age in a mix of new and used acacia barrels. The Chenin Blanc and Verdelho were harvested together a few weeks later, co-fermented on their skins and then pressed off to neutral French oak barrels.
After a few trials, the wine was blended, a small amount of sulfur was added (25 ppm), and then it was racked to neutral barrels to rest for a few months prior to bottling.
The wine is salty and textural, hinting at tropical and citrus fruit both preserved and fresh, with a mild sense of chaos underneath it all.
