Vinification
The grapes are hand harvested, de-stalked, slightly squeezed before putting them into a pneumatic press where they rest in contact with the skins for 5 hours. Once the residue has been removed at 50ºF, the clean must is fermented, under the action of selected yeasts in stainless steel at 59ºF. After the fermentation, the wine is clarified and undergoes stabilization at 23ºF.
