WINE MAKING PROCESS
Domaine Arlaud employs certified biodynamic farming practices in its vineyards. The harvest is conducted in three distinct stages to ensure optimal grape selection. Fermentation is initiated with indigenous yeasts. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging in French oak barrels. The wine is then bottled without fining or filtering, a technique aimed at preserving its natural character and integrity.
