WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for this Pinot Noir begins with hand-harvesting grapes into small bins, followed by meticulous sorting. The fruit is destemmed and crushed before undergoing a cold pre-fermentation maceration for three to five days. Fermentation is initiated at 15°C using selected yeasts, with temperatures managed between 24°C and 26°C, employing daily punch-downs and pump-overs. Post-fermentation maceration lasts for three to ten days. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for 10 months prior to blending.
