Winery and vinification
During harvest, which takes place by hand following local tradition, the grapes are initially sorted on a table in the vineyard. As soon as the batches of grapes reach the winery, they are carefully sorted once again by hand, then fermented separately. All the bunches are de-stemmed and lightly crushed prior to fermentation in stainless-steel tanks with temperature control. After blending, the wines continue to mature for between 18 and 24 months in barrels, of which 30 and 40% are new each year. Annual production is between 100,000 and 120,000 bottles, according to the vintage.    (hide)
