About this wine

Vinification

The grapes are harvested in late September and macerated for 10 days at a controlled temperature. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation take place in stainless steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine rests for 12 months in stainless steel vats, followed by 12 months in oak barrels and a further 2–3 months in bottle in the winery’s cellars before release.
