Description: During the ripening of the grapes we thin out the bunches to optimize the yield and then hand-select them before they undergo soft crushing. Selected yeasts that respect the fragrant aroma of the product are added to the must. At the end of temperature- controlled fermentation, the wine is drawn off and racked. Complete malo- lactic fermentation takes place in steel. The wine is then cold stabilized and prepared for bottling.
