Winemaking Information
Maceration and proportions of whole-cluster vs destemming vary each vintage depending on the sanitary state of the grapes. The grapes are foot-trodden before going into maceration vats. A semi-carbonic maceration lasts one to three weeks. The grapes are then pressed and age about 10 months in vat until bottling. Besides pressing the grapes, no interventions are done until bottling. A small amount of S02, two grams per hectoliter, is added at bottling.
