WINE MAKING PROCESS
Château des Annereaux employs traditional vinification techniques, with fermentation occurring in historic cement vats. Gentle extractions are prioritized to preserve fruit purity and tannin finesse. The wine undergoes aging for 12 months in French oak barrels, with a portion of new oak, and is also matured in a large wooden cuve to ensure balance. The estate is committed to organic farming and environmentally friendly practices.
