Vinification
We pick the selected grapes at 20-22% of sugariness and 6-8 titratable acidity. After removing the stem and pressing. the fermentation proceeds in oak barrels, at 23-28°C degrees of temperature. Ageing continues for 18 month in French oak barrels, subsequently, the wine further ages in the bottles.
