The grapes are harvested at dawn to preserve freshness. They are then destemmed and softly pressed. Fermentation occurs at a controlled temperature of 26°C. The wine ages for 12 months in French oak barrels, followed by 4 months in large oak barrels, 4 months in stainless steel tanks, and 4 months in bottle.
