Vinification / Aging

After the grapes are harvested, they are carefully thawed, then exploded in the absence of a press and the grape pulp is taken to a stainless steel tank where pre-fermentation extraction is applied at 10 ° C in a reducing environment for 3 days.

Yeast is then added and alcoholic fermentation takes place at increasingly graded temperatures. Before the end of the fermentation, the marcs are withdrawn in order to avoid the unpleasant tannins from the grape seeds.

The fermentation is continued until the end, with temperature release (27-28 ° C) followed by millactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. At the end of the milking, the wine matures in French oak barrels for 10 months with periodic stirring of its wine lees.  Before bottling it is not filtered.
