Treatment in the cellar

The fermentation of the grapes took place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine was put into French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine matured for a total of 16 months in new French barriques, 87% of which were new wood. Only the best barrels are used for this first-class cuvée to create a collector's wine of the highest quality.
