Winemaking
Vinification is traditional, with leaf removal and permanent grass cover. Maceration takes place for 2 to 4 weeks between 28 and 30°C. Aging takes place in thermoregulated stainless steel vats
between 10 and 17°C. Racking is carried out occasionally in order to optimize the fruitiness of the wine.
