Vinification and refinement

The manual harvest of the grapes takes place in the last ten days of September. This is a late harvest, carried out when most of the grapes are affected by botrytis cinerea (noble rot). After pressing and destemming, the must undergoes a short skin maceration in the press. Fermentation takes place partly in steel tanks at a controlled temperature and partly in oak barrels at cellar temperature (16-20 °C). At the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the wine is left sur lies (where malolactic fermentation takes place) with frequent batonage until September of the following year, when decanting takes place before bottling.
