Vinification

The grapes for this cuvée have been carefully selected from the upper parts of the vineyard. Only the best bunches were used that were crushed as a whole by feet straight away. During the fermented in open vats for 10 days the cap was gently punched down by hand and feet twice a day for a moderate extraction. Transferred by gravity to a 2500L oak barrel where it stays on the lees for 10 month. Bottled unfined, unfiltered without the addition of SO2.
