WILD ONE
ASUFA
Asufa is our winemaker Guy Eshel’s personal playground at Dalton Winery; A series of moments and memories gathered throughout his time in the field, brought to life together here at Dalton. Each wine in this series tells a different story – some of the here and now, others of a time and place elsewhere – but all were made to add color and complexity to your dining experiences.

Winemaking
The wine was made in two stages. Half of the grapes were pressed as whole bunches and the clear juice feremented in barrels . The other half was processed in the traditional method and allowed to sit on skins for a while berfore ferement. The wines were femented both in barrels and steel tanks, natural fementations in both. The wine was then allowed to mature 6 months in barrel on light lees.
