Cellar

Traditional bottle fermentation

The grapes are gently pressed, and fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The base wine is then aged for six months in small, used oak barrels. After the second fermentation in the bottle, the wine remains on the lees for at least 24 months – lending it structure, depth, and an elegant creaminess. The focus of the vinification lies in expressing the varietal character with clarity and precision.
