Vinification
The perfect ripening of the grapes and the carefully selected date of harvest, which is practicated during the night, contribute to the preservation of varietal aromatic and phenolic potential. Hand picking of grapes is followed by two tables of selection, the destemming and light crushing of the baies. Right determing of the durations of pre- and post-fermentation macerations, allows extracting the aromatic and phenolic potential, before its transfer by gravity to oak barrels. There, following malolactic fermentation, it is left to age for 14 months with further 10 months in the bottle.
