Fowles Wild Bouquet 2022 Moscato

Winemaking

The fruit was harvested during the evening at low temperature. This helps to preserve primary fruit flavours. This wine was fermented in high tech, stainless steel tanks at 11˚C. Low temperature fermentation is essential to retain as much primary fruit lift and colour as possible; a necessary strategy for this sweet, fresh white. Our Wild Bouquet Moscato gets further special treatment. We halt the fermentation process at about the half way point to ensure original fruit sugars are retained as well as its existing ferment ester characteristics We use a distinctive yeast strain for this wine: QA23. This is a Portugesestrain that is especially suited to the fermentation of fresh, fruity white wines.
