Destemming and pre-fermentative carbonic cryomaceration of grapes for 12 hours. Subsequent soft pressing and static decantation, inoculation of cryophilic yeasts, initial fermentation in thermoconditioned steel at very low temperature. Transfer to second-passage French oak tonneaux until complete transformation of sugars and prolonged contact with fermentation lees with frequent batonnage, final aging in cement tank.
