WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Réserve Grand Veneur begins with manual harvesting to ensure grape quality. The grapes are then destemmed and crushed before undergoing fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. This controlled environment helps to preserve the wine's fruit characteristics. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in vats for a short period, typically bottled around four months after harvest. This approach emphasizes freshness and fruit purity, characteristic of a classic Côtes du Rhône.
