Cellar
After harvesting, the grapes of the varieties are processed separately. About one third of the quantity is fermented and stored in a large concrete egg with a capacity of 3800 liters. Due to the distinctive shape of the so-called Super Eggs, the yeast circulates strongly in the container during fermentation and ensures a reductive profile. The remainder of the juice is fermented classically in steel tanks. About one month prior to the bottling, the final cuvée is assembled and stored in stainless steel tanks.
