As with all the work we do in the vineyard, the grapes are harvested by hand. It is done with boxes in 12 kg with a first selection of the grapes in the field followed by a second selection in the winery to ensure maximum quality.
The terroirs are vinified separately, at controlled temperature, in stainless steel tanks.
Fermentation is spontaneous, carried out with indigenous yeasts from the grapes themselves. Macerations are short, 8 to 10 days, during which the must is gently pumped over to obtain a very subtle extraction.
Malolactic fermentation follows, followed by 8 months of aging in stainless steel and concrete tanks.
Alcohol content: 14%
