Vinification
The grapes were hand-harvested, followed by careful de-stemming and gentle pressing. Fermentation occurred in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 16°C, using naturally occurring yeasts to promote a pure expression of the fruit. To maintain the freshness and primary characteristics of the grapes, no malolactic fermentation was carried out. The wine was then aged on its fine lees for six months, a process that imparted additional texture and complexity before bottling.
