Vinification
After careful sorting at harvest and at the winery, grapes are destemmed and transferred gently to vats. Cold pre-fermentation maceration extracts tannins and aromas before alcohol development. Punchdowns and pump-overs are adjusted per batch to achieve optimal balance and harmony.
-
Ageing
12–18 months in French oak of varying size, age, and origin to soften the wood and highlight the appellation’s nuances. No racking during aging; wines are returned to the mass for 2–3 months to clarify naturally.
