THE WINEMAKING

The harvest is strictly manual and only the selected grapes are immediately taken to the cellar. Winemaking begins with a quick maceration (a few hours) at a controlled temperature followed by soft pressing; the must is then moved to steel tanks for fermentation. The wine ages for at least six months in steel on fine lees and after blending and bottling, it rests for a few months in the cellar before being placed on the market.
