Vinification
The alcoholic fermentation is made in stainless steel thermo regulated tanks
between 26 and 32°C. During this time, grapes are roded and the juice
raised twice a day to break the hat of marc and extract the best colors and
the ripest tannins. After a malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged during 6
months in oak barrels.
