Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were hand-picked in the early hours of the morning and transported, still cool, to the winery where they were completely destemmed. In large open wooden tanks the fermentation started spontaneously with wild yeasts. Commercial yeasts were not used. The mash cake was pressed down manually a maximum of twice a day. After about 30 days the wine was carefully pressed before maturing for 21 months in French barriques. 9% new barrels were used, the remaining barrels were made of second and third wood.
