AT THE WINERY

Grape sorting on a vibrating conveyor belt table. Whole bunch pressing for 2/3 of the grapes, 24-hour skin contact for the rest after destemming and crushing. Fermentation, lees stiring (batonnage) and 6-month skin contact in a combination of stainless steel tanks and clay amphoras. For this vintage, 20% of the total quantity was fermented with indigenous yeasts using the “pied de cuve” technique. Those grapes were picked and pressed in vessels at our vineyard; the fermentation started right there, taking advantage of the population of native yeasts present.
