WINEMAKING & SECOND FERMENTATION
The grapes are hand-picked and vinified using the most modern techniques (soft pressing, clarification through natural sedimentation, addition of cultured yeasts, fermentation at controlled temperature (18-20°C) and maturation on the fine lees. In January following the harvest the cuvée for the base wine is prepared; in March the tirage takes place, and the wine undergoes a slow second fermentation in bottle for at least 20-24 months, before it is disgorged.
