Winemaking:
The freshly harvested grapes are destemmed and crushed, then placed into small vats to ferment for 72 hours at 18°C. Followed by fermentation with gentle pump-overs at a controlled temperature of 26°C. After 30 days of skin contact maceration the wine is drained-of which at this point is completely dry. At the end of malolactic fermentation the wine is ready to be racked and transferred to start the ageing process.
Refinement:
The wine remains for 24 months in Slavonian Oak of 25 HL where it stabilizes it`s color and structure and acquires elegance. Then the wine is bottled, where it settles for 18 months before being sold.
