Bowhaus White 4.0. This unique blend was made in an effort to elevate the current Bowhaus White semi-sweet style and take it to the next level. By bringing four distinct grape varieties together early in the winemaking process, the result is a wine with layered tropical character and a fresh, balanced sweetness.
Fermentation started very cold at 50 degrees F, giving the team time to harvest and blend all four juices before primary fermentation moved in full force. Fermented and aged in 100% stainless steel, blending the juices early creates a wine matrix with beautiful tropical smells and flavors. The sweetness was obtained by stopping primary fermentation and retaining natural grape sugar, finishing at 1% residual sugar.
