WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Rose BonBon begins with grapes harvested at night or in the early morning to maintain freshness. A cold maceration of three hours is followed by pressing under oxygen-excluding conditions. Fermentation takes place at low temperatures to preserve delicate aromas. The wine is then aged for six months on fine lees, contributing to its texture and complexity. The estate employs 'raisonnée' and integrated farming practices.
