WINE MAKING PROCESS
Grapes for this Pinot Noir are 100% destemmed and undergo spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Approximately 20% whole bunches are included in the maceration, which lasts for about 20 days. The wine is then aged for 14-15 months in mature Burgundy barrels. It is bottled unfiltered, preserving its natural character.
