Harvest and Maturing
Careful harvest and gentle vinification.
The harvest is carried out in three distinct, optimal stages, always keeping the grapes cool. In the third phase, fully ripe but not overripe grapes are picked to preserve delicate berry notes, such as raspberry. Around 10% of the grapes are fermented as whole clusters, with the remainder destemmed. After a 1–3 day cold maceration, fermentation takes place at temperatures below 24°C to retain freshness and fruit. The wine matures for 17 months in French barriques, 30% of which are new.
