Natural and spontaneous fermentation. The grapes always ferment in 500-liter oak barrels with an open lid, without temperature control and with indigenous yeasts. The maceration is variable but can last up to two or three weeks. Aging for more than 24 months in French and American oak barrels, 40% new and 60% one year old barrels. After aging, a slight clarification and filtering is carried out.
