Vinification
Hand harvested, direct press of whole clusters, and 2 fermentations (both spontaneous with indigenous yeasts) partially in stainless steel and neutral oak, but with no malolactic. This helps to preserve the freshness and acidity of the finished wine, imparting no flavors of oak but rather allowing the wine to breathe.
Aging
Aging is 6 months in stainless steel sur lie and bottled unfined, slight filtration and low SO2 at bottling.
