VINIFICATION AND REFINING:
The grapes are harvested entirely by hand using boxes, steeped in a cold

100% of the fermentation takes place in steel at a controlled temperature
of 16°C for eight months.
When the fermentation is over, the product thus obtained is not poured
off and therefore remains in the same containers to mature for about eight
months at a constant temperature.
At the end of this period, the wine is bottled.
There follows a further period of refining in the bottle before the wine
is distributed.
