| Winemaking and refinement technique |
After destemming, the grapes pass through the press without being crushed.
From the draining of the grapes, we obtain the free-run must, or the most precious part of the juice. The first fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature; this is followed by about 9 months of refinement, always in steel, and finally bottling. The second fermentation in the bottle is followed by at least 30 months of refinement on the yeasts.
The riddling is done manually.
DRAFT: approximately 9 months after the harvest
