Vinification:
Grapes are hand-picked at the optimum of their maturity. Soft
de-stemming and crushing is followed by fermentation at controlled
temperature (28°C)
in stainless steel tanks. Wine was fermented using the cultural
yeast strains. Skin and cap management was performed by délestage
and remontage. When the fermenting juice reaches optimum sugar/acidity
balance, fermentation is stopped by cooling, in order to retain
the natural sweetness and freshness of the wine.

notes followed from the nose are perfectly balanced by the
complex and sweet finish.
