Winemaking
The grapes, de-stemmed and pressed, are left to macerate for seven days at controlled temperature with frequent pump-overs and delestage to allow the extraction of colouring agents and flavour. After further gentle pressing, the alcoholic fermentation continues in thermo-conditioned stainless steel tanks. Once the fermentation is finished, the wine is decanted and completes its malolactic fermentation and maturation in stainless steel tanks. Ultimately, the wine ages for a minimum of 3 months in bottle.
