- Hand-picked grapes are pressed immediately and put through a slow, low-temperature fermentation of about 40 days. Made with the family's patented Vinooxygen system, which allows the whole vinification without racking, gives close control of oxygen and lets sulphites be cut to as little as 70% of the legal limit, and cuts water and detergent use by up to 80%.
