How It Was Made:
Manual harvesting according to uniformity of ripeness with subsequent bunch sorting and destemming. The berries undergo cold pre-fermentation maceration for about 48 hours, after which they are gently pressed. Fermentation and vinification take place partly in steel tanks and partly in new French oak barrels. During aging, the wine matures on its lees for 6 months. Aging in bottle for 6 months.
