The grapes are harvested in palox (large bins) to avoid crushing them. These palox are then refrigerated at 4°C for 24 hours (in a cold room) before being put into the vat. This allows us to perform a longer and gentler pre-fermentation maceration, maintaining a temperature between 18 to 20°C before pressing, which promotes the wine's aromatic development. The traditional Cuvées are kept in tanks for 4 months after fermentation before bottling. The '12M Cuvées' are placed in barrels after fermentation for 12 months. Then, they are blended in a tank for up to 4 months before bottling.
