WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process begins with whole cluster pressing of the Chardonnay, Gamay, and Pinot Noir grapes, followed by a brief maceration in the press. The resulting must undergoes alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel at low temperatures with selected yeasts. The wine is then aged in stainless steel before undergoing its second fermentation in the bottle (Metodo Classico). It rests on its lees for 15-18 months before disgorgement. The harvest typically occurs at the end of August.
