Pink & Bubbly Moscato
Innocent Bystander Pink Moscato is authentically made from old-vine Gordo (brown) and Black Muscat (Muscat of Hamburg) grapes exclusively grown for us in the sun-drenched vineyards around Swan Hill on Australia’s Murray River.
They have chosen these vineyards because they allow us to pick with acidity, sweetness and alcohol at their optimum levels – thus not requiring manipulation in the winery.
Vinification:
Fruit was hand harvested in the cool of the night, chilled and received in the winery with 8 hours of picking.
The fruit was destemmed and crushed to press for two hours of skin contact (to give it the rose colour), before being gently pressed to tank. Pressings were gentle and cuts were kept separate.
The free run portions were fermented long and cool (12-14 deg C) in tank to retain aromas.
The pressings were racked to barrel and had a warmish 20 – 24 deg C ferment.
Long settling enabled minimal filtration prior to bottling.
Oak:
Pressings only, in French oak, for six months
