Treatment in the cellar

The juice of the grapes was left to rest for several days without the addition of enzymes. Then the juice was transferred to a special selection of barrels and left to ferment naturally. The fermentation lasted for 8 months, after which the wine was left in the lees for another month. The wine matured for 9 months in oak barrels (90% French oak and 10% Hungarian oak).
