WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Ossian 2020 emphasizes natural fermentation using native yeasts at controlled temperatures to preserve the grape's aromatics. Following fermentation, the wine is aged on its lees (sur lie), a technique designed to enhance complexity and texture. The harvest timing is carefully managed to achieve the desired balance of fruit and acidity. The winery operates under certified organic viticulture practices.
