WINE MAKING PROCESS
Château Paradis Rosé is produced using the saignée method, where juice is bled off from fermenting red grapes. Grapes are completely destemmed before pressing, and juices are obtained via direct pressing. Each grape variety and plot is vinified separately. Fermentation occurs in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks at 15-17°C. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks, remaining unoaked. The estate follows 'Lutte Raisonnée' farming practices and is in conversion to organic viticulture.
