WINE MAKING
The grapes are harvested by hand when they reach perfect maturity, selected put into boxes, and immediately brought into the cellar to be processed.
De-stemming, mashing and maceration vary, according to grape type, wine to be produced and vintage.
Racking is done several times to clear the wine of lees.
When the wine seems to be ready and sufficiently stable, it is bottled and stored in a cool place. The proportion of wine destined for ageing is racked into oak barrels and stored in special cool, dark rooms, where it will mature in wood for several months.
