Vinification details
All the vineyard parcels were harvested to optimum ripeness and vinified separately. The wines were fermented at low temperatures with selected yeast strains to highlight each vineyard's specific characteristics. After fermentation, the wine was left for a further 3 months in contact with the lees to develop a rich mid-palate before putting the final blend together.
