Harvest
The grapes were hand picked and de-stemmed between September 21st and September 26th 2019.
Vinification | Aging
The must was then left on the skins for about 14 hours at a temperature of 10°-12° C in tanks especially designed to protect it from oxygen by using recycled carbon dioxide from the first fermentation, in order to avoid using high levels of antioxidants. Subsequently, 60% of the must fermented and aged on the lees for 5 months in 20-27 hl barrels and the remaining part in stainless steel vats.
Bottling
The wine was then blended and bottled during full moons between the end of March and June 2020.
