Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for the preservation of the wine’s fresh fruit character. The wine is then racked and undergoes malolactic fermentation, adding complexity and a creamy texture.

Ageing

Refined for four months in neutral oak barrels, imparting subtle complexity without overpowering the fruit.
