WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process at Château d'Anglès Grand Vin 2021 involves traditional techniques with a focus on terroir expression. Grapes are hand-picked and selected, then de-stemmed and fermented in temperature-controlled vats. Maceration can extend up to 50 days for optimal extraction. Syrah and Mourvèdre are aged for 10 months in used oak barrels, while Grenache is aged in vats. The wine undergoes natural stabilization and clarification by gravity, without fining or filtering.
