Technical Information

Only the ripest and healthiest grapes selected for vinification. Two days of cold maceation at around 10'C favour the extraction of the grape's typical aromas and rich colour. Vinification continues with the punching down of the floating cap three or four times a day to ensure that the colour and noble tannins in the skin are released into the new wine. The fermenting must is racked and returned (the process of delestage) several times during the initial stages ofthe 10-12 days fermentation rocess which takes places at 26-28'C. 8-12 moths of barrique aging and further 6 in the bottle to complete the process
