Treatment in the cellar

Handpicked and sorted three times, the grapes were crushed and left on the skin for 5 days. After fermentation was completed at a constant 28 degrees, the mash was pressed in baskets. The malolactic fermentation took place in steel tanks, followed by 14 months of ageing in third, fourth and fifth barrels of French 300 litre oak.
