VINIFICATION
The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted during the picking. They are lightly pressed in a pneumatic press in order to obtain a slow extraction. After a gentle settling, the wine is put in French oak barrels of 228 liters (15% new barrels) for the two fermentations (alcoholic and malolactic) with natural yeasts for 14 months.

AGING
Aging on fine lees. One month before bottling, the wine from the different barrels is placed in a stainless steel tank for assembly. The wine is finally fined and lightly filtered before bottling according to the lunar calendar ("fruit" day).
