Our winemakers look for the right moment for the harvest of each particular vineyard. A small part of the crop goes through hot skin contact maceration in order to support the fruity aromas. The majority of the grapes is destemmed and sent to traditional maceration and fermentation for about three weeks. This long process is ideal to extract the character of the variety and to get a good structure with supple tannins. Producer: Philippe Lebrun.
