Vinification Method
Classic fermentation method, involving selective extractive enzymes, which are compatible with the active dry yeasts. Fermentation up to 30o C in the first 2/3, and lowering down to 20o C during the last 1/3. During the whole fermentative process, pumping over 2 times per day , using each time half of the volume contained in the vat. After the alcoholic fermentation, the cap is plunged for 30 days, and during that period, extraction of the gentle tannins is conducted, along with the malolactic fermentation and the natural stabilization of the wine.

Ageing
Wine is aged in French of Allier oak barrels of 225 Lt from Seguin Moreau for 5 months.
