Description
The grapes are picked from vineyards with low yields. After racking off the coarse must, a percentage of the wine is finished fermenting in French oak barrels and remains for 4-6 weeks on its lees. Subsequently, the wine is blended in small-capacity tanks to keep it in suspension on its fine lees for at least 3 months.
