WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Henri Cruchon Nihilo Nature 2022 is produced using grapes from biodynamically farmed vineyards. The winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention, with fermentation occurring using indigenous yeasts. The wine is vinified 'nature,' meaning it is bottled without added sulfites, fining, or filtration, resulting in what is described as 'pure fermented grape juice.' The wine is aged in tanks to maintain its freshness and fruit purity. Harvest is conducted manually.
