Treatment in the cellar Harvested mainly in mid-March, the must undergoes a long maceration period of about 28 days, enhancing color and tannin richness. Fermented under controlled conditions, the wine ages generously in new French oak barrels for approximately 30 months, gaining structure, depth, and harmoniously integrated wood notes.
