Winemaking

The vinification of the 2 varieties is done separately in stainless steel tanks by cold-extraction 24-48 hours before fermentation begins. Fermentation is controlled at a constant relatively low temperature and lasts 10-12 days. Gentle extraction and management of the cap by maceration is done, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wines mature on the fine lees to acquire their rich structure until bottling.
