Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were handpicked and cold soaked for 24 hours. Fermentation was started with selected yeast strains at a regulated 26°C. Then, at the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the must was pressed and transferred into French oak foudres with a capacity of 3000 litres per barrel. Both the malolactic fermentation and the maturation of 14 months took place in the foudre.
