Vinification
The harvest takes place around mid-August, at night, to preserve the grapes’ natural fragrance. The grapes are picked at the beginning of their technological ripeness to maintain acidity and freshness. After de-stemming, an extremely gentle pressing is used to avoid color extraction. The must undergoes natural settling, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature for several days. The wine then matures on its lees for a few months.
