ESCANDALO Pedro Ximenez 2025, Chile (White)
$26.00Price
Certification : Organic
Grapes : Pedro Ximenez
Region : Coquimbo, Chile
Vinification : The grapes were hand-harvested and destemmed on March 29, then placed into the tank as whole, uncrushed berries. Fermentation started spontaneously (with native yeasts) and was kept in a stainless steel tank for 30 days. Active fermentation lasted 25 days, and the wine was racked off the skins on day 30. During fermentation, pump-overs (remontajes) were performed twice daily to keep the cap and skin mass moist. On day 30, skin contact was ended by draining the free-run wine and pressing the pomace. Pressing was done at low pressure, and the press wine was blended back with the free-run wine.
