Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were harvested separately and fermented on the skins for 7 days, followed by an extended maceration period of one week. The must was pressed in 30% new wood and 70% second and third filled barrels, where the malolactic fermentation was completed. The Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Shiraz and Petit Verdot varieties matured separately for 12 months in first- and second-filled French barriques before blending.
