Treatment in the cellar

On arrival at the cellar, the hand-picked grapes were completely destemmed, crushed and placed in open fermenters, where they were left to rest overnight. The next morning yeast was added to the mash, which started the fermentation process. During fermentation, the juice was periodically pumped over to extract maximum color, aromas and flavor nuances. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was pressed off the skins and transferred to oak barrels for malolactic fermentation. Once malolactic fermentation was complete, the wine was aged for 12 months in a combination of third- as well as fourth-fill French oak barrels. Only the best barrels were blended and bottled after completion of aging.
