Winemaking
The grapes are destemmed and fermented in temperature-controlled tanks where skin-contact maceration is enhanced for 15-20 days. Punch downs and délastage are carried out carefully. A spontaneous malolactic fermentation occurs after the alcoholic fermentation. It follows the racking of the wine into 500 and 700 litres tonneaux and big barrels where it ages for at least 6 months
