WINE MAKING PROCESS
Domaine Rolet Arbois Savagnin Ouillé is produced using 100% Savagnin grapes. The key winemaking technique is the 'ouillé' style, where barrels are topped up during aging to prevent oxidation and maintain a fresh profile. Fermentation is often initiated with indigenous yeasts. The wine is then aged in barrels for a period, typically between 12 to 18 months, allowing for development and integration. Grapes are harvested by hand, and the estate employs sustainable farming practices, with vineyards currently in conversion to organic.
