WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for No T'ho Diré involves vinifying each grape variety separately. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks, with techniques like daily pigeage and gentle remontage employed. Post-fermentation, the wine undergoes aging for 12 to 14 months in second-year French oak barrels sourced from Allier. The producer emphasizes a lack of filtration or clarification, which is intended to preserve the wine's richness and complexity. Terres de Vidalba employs manual and respectful viticulture practices in their vineyards.
