As soon as the grapes come into the winery, the grapes are pressed.
The juice obtained is refrigerated at 7°C in preparation for the settling period which is done the following day.
The sediments are separated from the clear juice which is then fermented; three quarters of the volume in oak barrels and the remaining quarter in stainless steel tanks.
Once the fermentation has finished, the wine is put into oak barrels for aging. It is stirred twice a week to start with and then only once.
In April, these two wines are blended together and bottled in June. The wine aged in stainless steel tanks brings freshness and vigor to the wine from the barrels, which benefits from this.
