Product information "Springfield Whole Berry Cabernet Sauvignon 2018"
The Springfield Whole Berry Cabernet Sauvignon smells wonderfully of lush, juicy berry fruit, cassis and a touch of fine spices. On the palate soft and velvety tannins open up, combined with the typical characteristics of the Cabernet Sauvignon grape. This wine has not been filtered or clarified and the winemaker recommends decanting it one hour before drinking.

After harvesting, the grapes were subjected to a two to three day cold swelling phase, after which the berries were fermented whole (uncrushed) in open fermentation tanks. The fermentation process lasted about three weeks. After completion of the malolactic fermentation, this delicious drop matured in second filled French barriques (Seguin Moreau). After the maturation was completed, the wine was bottled unfiltered.
