THE HARVEST
\nPicking time:first week of October, at ideal phenolic maturity.
\nPicking method:the grapes are always hand-picked, very early in the morning when it is still dark and the grapes are still cool from the night, which is the perfect temperature for picking.<\/p>\n

WINEMAKING:
\nThe destemmed grapes are lightly pressed. Spontaneous fermentation(without using selected yeasts) at controlled temperature and 10 days on the skins. Pumping over and punching downoperations are performed during the maceration on the skins in order to extract as much aroma\u00a0as possible. The wine is then racked with a very soft pressing of the marc to avoid overly aggressive extraction. The wine is then decanted to remove the heavier lees and part of it is transferred into 2nd<\/sup>-fill French oak barrelsfor around four months.
\nMalolactic fermentation occurs spontaneously after racking.<\/p>\n
