Elementis

A Swedish friend helped me with the design as my drawing skills are below standard.

Elementis is Latin and refers to the 4 natural elements of earth, water, fire & air. The bottle symbolises the region from where the grapes originate while the umbrella is the contrast as it symbolises the style in which the wine is made – skin contact. The red of the hand symbolises fire, the yellow water, the green umbrella earth and the blue air.

Destemmed and fermented on the skins for 13 days in open tanks.

Aged in old 500L barrels for 10 months.
