Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were completely destemmed, crushed and pressed after eight hours on the skins. The spontaneous fermentation took place 75% in large French oak barrels and 25% in stainless steel tanks. Spontaneous fermentation here means that no commercial yeasts were used for the fermentation. Only the yeast naturally occurring in the environment and on the fruit set the fermentation in motion. After the alcoholic as well as malolactic fermentation was completed, the wine matured on the yeast in the barrel as well as in the tank for eight months before the wines were blended and bottled.
