Vinification and ageing
After careful selection in the vineyard, the grapes are destemmed and pressed. The alcoholic fermentation begins without the addition of selected yeasts and proceeds at 28°/30°C. The entire vinification and maceration process takes place in concrete tanks for about 35 days with manual pumping over and punching down. In December, the new wine is decanted into 20/25hl Slavonian oak barrels and 4/5hl French oak tonneaux where malolactic fermentation takes place. After 12 months of refinement, the wine is blended and bottled the following spring. The wine is aged for a minimum of 8 months before being sold.
