VINIFICATION

After destemming, the grapes are crushed without pressure. From the pressed grape we obtain free run must, which is the most precious part of the juice. The first fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks; after which the Pinot Noir rests in stainless steel for about 9 months, while the Chardonnay is aged in French oak. The second fermentation takes place in bottle and is followed by at least 90 months aging on its lees.

T I R A G E : about 9 months after harvest

A G I N G O N – L E E S : at least 90 months

D O S A G E A T D I S G O R G E M E N T : zero
