Winemaking Vinification involves fermentation in open fermenters with approximately 40% whole clusters. The juice undergoes gentle mixing early on, with a small acid addition before fermentation to ensure health and slightly lower pH. Fermentation occurs at medium temperatures (22-26°C), with more vigorous punch downs performed three times per day as the juice warms. Only spontaneous fermentation is allowed, with no cultured yeasts added. Fermentation vessels used are concrete or small plastic bins. The wine is aged for 18 months, primarily in 400-liter French oak barrels.
