Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were first lightly crushed and then filled into stainless steel tanks, where fermentation took place using only natural yeasts. Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, the wine spent 2-3 weeks on the skin and was then gently pressed. The malolactic fermentation took place in French barriques, in which the wine was allowed to mature for another 12 months before bottling.
