WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes for Domaine Piquemal Tradition are destemmed and undergo cold pre-fermentation maceration. Fermentation involves a technique of alternating pump-overs and rack-and-drains, with a maceration period lasting 28 days. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in vats. The estate practices manual harvesting and employs sustainable viticultural methods, including soil aeration and yield management, with a commitment to organic conversion and HVE certification.
