Winemaking and Aging
To preserve their integrity, grapes are carefully harvested and sorted out by hand.
Following the pneumatic press, juices stay in a vat overnight for a cool settling down and then are directly filled in tanks or barrels depending on theyr aromatic profile.
Fermentations and aging are taking place for 30% in traditional Burgundian 400 litres barrels and 70% in stainless steel vats for 10 months.
We only use light toasted French oak coming mainly from Bourgogne, Allier and Vosges forests.
