Vineyard Characteristics:
Soil: Permeable weathered granite
Altitude: 120 metres above sea level
Harvest: By hand in small crates in early September
Vinification:
The grapes are kept cool for one night, then in the morning they are destemmed, pressed and put into steel tanks to ferment in their indigenous yeasts which preserve the typical aromas of the grape. After 48 hours the skins are separated and the free-run must continues to ferment at 20°C. Post fermentation the wine is left to rest on the fine lees until the following spring before bottling.
