Winemaking: This wine is the result of a minimalist winemaking process to allow the unique character of the terroir to shine through. Hand picked at the ideal maturation point, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks. Unoaked to allow the pure fruit character to take the leading role, the full-bodied structure was achieved by long a maceration and cuvasion until the end of the malolactic fermentation. Aged in stainless steel tanks for one year.
