Treatment in the cellar

Die Trauben für diesen Wein wurden mit großer Sorgfalt per Hand gelesen, entrappt und dann Beere für Beere sortiert. Die Gärung fand in offenen Gärbottichen statt, wobei der Most alle vier Stunden untergestoßen wurde, um so optimale Farbe, Tannine und Aromen extrahieren zu können. Nach der Gärung fand noch eine dreiwöchige Quellphase statt, um ein Maximum an Farbe und Tanninstruktur zu erreichen. Der Wein reifte 14 Monate lang zu 100 % in Fässern aus französischer Eiche (43% Neuholz).
