WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Bruyère & David Syrah 2023 is produced using 100% Syrah grapes. Following hand-harvesting and sorting, the grapes undergo fermentation in concrete tanks with a maceration period of 28-30 days. The winemaking process utilizes gravity to minimize mechanical intervention. The wine is then aged for 8 months in concrete vats. Domaine Les Bruyères adheres to certified organic and biodynamic farming practices, with meticulous hand-cultivation of the vines throughout the growing season.
