Fermentation is long and moderately cool, retaining fresh fruit characters. About 4% underwent wild fermentation for extra complexity. 14% of the Viognier is fermented in aged French and American Oak. Blending occurs only in the final stages of the winemaking process.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559685\":360,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}'\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559685\":360,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}'\u003eDelivery\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\"\u003eAvailable for local delivery or national delivery via our delivery partners.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}'\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Enotria \u0026 Coe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31870910398536,"sku":"A7116124","price":22.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/4813\/3192\/files\/FullSizeRender_6e525f45-8801-4c46-a06c-82885c49a859.heic?v=1756400610","url":"https:\/\/thestrongwaterco.com\/no\/products\/the-hermit-crab-darenberg","provider":"The Strong Water Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
