Description | Apothic Dark combines dark fruit flavours of blueberry and blackberry with lush notes of coffee and dark chocolate for a rich, yet silky smooth, wine experience. |
Vinification | The grapes for Apothic Dark were harvested during low night temperatures to ensure that the fruit arrived at cool temperatures at the winery for processing. Grapes were cold-soaked prior to fermentation to maximize the extraction of bold flavour and deep colour. Fermentation occurred at warm temperatures in order to enhance colour and flavour in the wine. Post-fermentation, the wine aged on oak chips / staves to compliment the natural dark fruit flavours with hints of dark chocolate and coffee. |
