Production Details The stated vineyard yield was 90 quintals of fresh grapes per hectare before drying, with 5,050 vines/ha trained to espalier with Guyot pruning. Grapes were hand-picked into 5–6 kg crates and dried for five weeks under controlled conditions of 21°C and below 75% relative humidity, with daily checking and weekly agitation, until reaching 42% weight loss. After selection and destemming, the must was held at 6°C with all lees for 15 days. Fermentation of the clarified must proceeded for 45 days before being stopped using cold; the wine then rested for several months before bottling. The sheet identifies the wine as certified organic and SOStain.
