WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Maison Vialade Languedoc Organic begins with the direct pressing of the grapes, followed by a cool fermentation at approximately 18°C. This controlled fermentation is designed to preserve the wine's aromatic profile. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging in stainless steel tanks for 4 to 8 months. This method of aging in stainless steel is chosen to maintain the wine's freshness and fruit-forward character. The grapes are harvested at night or early morning to ensure optimal fruit quality and freshness upon arrival at the winery.
