Vinification: the hand-harvested grapes are destemmed and placed in open vats where alcoholic fermentation takes place in contact with the skins without temperature control. Alcoholic fermentation lasts about 15 days during which the mass is repeatedly punched down. At the end of alcoholic fermentation, the wine is separated from the skins with soft pressing and placed in steel tanks to carry out malolactic fermentation. At the end of the malolactic fermentation, the racking follows. The wine is left to age in 500-liter wooden barrels until the following summer.
