Today, Australian, French and Swiss winemakers have specialized in it, and in recent years more and more experimental German colleagues have followed, who produce the extract in a complex manual process without preservatives. For them, the green grapes are not a by-product of thinning out vines for the purpose of must concentration. Rather, they harvest specially selected grapes early. You start hand-picking the still unripe and yet plump berries in midsummer, from mid-July to early August. Then the grapes have a gentle sweetness, a lot of acidity and a fine aroma. Freshly filled in the still unopened bottle, the Verjus shines light yellow-greenish and has a shelf life of three to four years. Once opened, it should be refrigerated and used within four to five weeks.
