Winemaking Information
A pied de cuve is harvested early to kick start fermentation. Grapes are manually sorted then destemmed. A four week maceration takes place in concrete tanks, where the wine also ferments and ages. S02 additions are 1/2 grams per hectoliter after malolactic fermentation and 1/2 grams at bottling.
SO2: During winemaking, at bottling
Fining/Filtration: Light filtration at bottling (non-sterile)
