Production Notes
Production Notes
Grapes are collected early in the morning while temperatures are low. They undergo a cold soaking to extract their beautiful aroma, before they are put through a pneumatic press in order to preserve the grape quality. The deposit from the must is filtered and added to the pressed juice which enhances the expression of primary aroma characteristics. The alcoholic fermentation is slow using low temperatures in stainless steel tanks followed by 4 months ageing on fine lees before bottling.
