Vinification
After destemming, the grapes pass through the press without being crushed.
From the draining of the grapes, we obtain the bottom must, or the most
most valuable part of the juice. The first fermentation takes place in steel tanks
at a controlled temperature; this is followed by approximately 9 months of
in steel and finally bottling. The second fermentation in the bottle
is followed by at least 30 months of af f ination on the yeasts.
The remuage is done manually.
