Winemaking

The vinification begins with the preparation, a few days before the harvest, of the pied de cuvè.

A modest percentage of grapes is harvested, de-stemmed and left in a usually steel barrel, where fermentation begins spontaneously, aided by one or two daily punching down.

After a few days the pied de cuvè is in full fermentation. We then proceed with the harvest of the entire vineyard. The grapes are de-stemmed and fall into the fermentation tanks in vitrified concrete.

The pied de cuvè is added little by little, which also starts the fermentation of the grapes that have just been de-stemmed. The must remains in contact with the skins for 3 days.

We then proceed to the drawing off and pressing of the pomace. The must continues fermentation until it becomes wine.

The wine is then strained and decanted into a steel tank, where it ages for over seven months.
It is then bottled in our cellar.
