Picked in middle of October and crushed into 2-proportional lots, then fermented in stainless tanks
and amphoras. The wine is fermented on skins for 3 weeks, the cap is gently broken by hand a few
times a day, and is then racked off skins in the middle of November into half neutral barrels and half
stainless tanks. The temperature at the winery reaches -5 degrees celsius, consistently in winter,
allowing for natural cold stabilization of the wine. MLF happens in Spring, the wine is bottled in May.
