About this wine

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in September at optimal ripeness. Maceration and alcoholic fermentation take place in stainless-steel tanks for 25–30 days at a controlled temperature of 28–30 °C.

Ageing

The wine ages in new French oak barrels, followed by a further six months in bottle in the winery’s cellars.
