Production Details Fruit was chilled before hand-sorting, after which the sheet states that 60% whole bunches were destemmed to tank. The must was pigeaged once daily initially and twice daily after indigenous fermentation began; temperature did not exceed 28°C and maceration lasted just under four weeks. The wine was drained and pressed to barrel for malolactic fermentation. Parcels were racked in spring, blended and returned to barrel. Maturation lasted 11 months in third- and fourth-fill French oak 225 L barrels and 500 L demi-muids, together with large upright wooden vats.
