Winemaking
The grapes were vinified for 25 days in concrete vats, and then fermented with 15% whole clusters and indigenous yeasts. The temperature was kept at 24 degrees throughout the entire process, in order to main the purity of the fruit aromas. The wine was then aged in untoasted, 3,500-litre French oak foudres for 15 months. It was very softly filtrated before bottling and then was aged a further 12 months in bottle.
