Lightly crushed and destemmed fruit was held in open top vessels for around six days. The must was slowly warmed and inoculated with specifically selected yeasts, with some left to ferment with ‘wild’ yeast naturally found on the grapes. Warm temperatures fermentation of up to 35C° and an extended maturation period on skins allowed for a gentle extraction of colour and tannin. The wine was developed in French oak barriques before secondary malolactic fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tohu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49488502653245,"sku":"DBWHMATPIN19","price":179.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/22635-1.jpg?v=1729033648","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/tohu-whenua-matua-single-vineyard-nelson-pinot-noir-2019","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
