Winemaking
Upon arrival at the winery the grapes were destemmed and gently crushed. Cooling was carried out in only a few seconds down to -1°C in an inert atmosphere. Static clarification of the must took place, followed by fermentation at 12°C in order to preserve the character of the fruit. Majority of the juice was fermented in stainless-steel tanks, while the remainder was fermented in 40-hectolitre oak barrels.
