Vinification

The grapes are harvested in mid- October. The grapes are delicately destemmed, here is a fast lowering of the temperature at 8°C using the cryomaceration technique, this allows a cold check of the must for 3 days. This helps in the expression of the aromas present in the grapes. The fermentation is completed at 25°C for another 12 days. Later it will do aging in wood and a few months in the bottle.
