Wine making & fining:
- Vinification: After a severe and selective hand picking at the vines and further to a meticulous dosage of the tanins and anthocyans from the time of the veraison in order to determine the optimal date of harvest. The grapes are manually harvested, stemmed and vatted in thermo-regulated vats. Daily tasting with regular pumping over are achieved to extract with harmony the different phenolic coumpounds. Following a long vatting time, the free-run wine is separated from the press wine to complete the malolactic fermentation.
