WINE MAKING PROCESS
Le Fruit Rouge is produced using 100% natural winemaking methods. The grapes undergo a very short maceration period, a key technique designed to preserve a light body and emphasize fresh fruit characteristics. Fermentation is likely spontaneous, relying on indigenous yeasts. The vineyards and cellar are certified organic, reflecting a deep commitment to sustainable and natural practices. Minimal intervention is the guiding principle throughout the winemaking process, aiming to create a pure expression of the fruit and terroir.
