- Vinification
- Grapes are carefully selected in the vineyard and picked in crates. A small fraction is picked first and fermented alone, spontaneously; once fermentation starts, the rest is picked and added to the tank. No selected yeasts are added, only the indigenous yeasts on the skins. Fermentation on a free cap lasts 15 days, followed only by transfers from cement to steel.
