Vinification: the grapes are collected in 20 kg baskets. 50% of the grapes are de-stemmed, crushed and submitted to a cold maceration for 24hours at a temperature of 10 °C. At the end of the maceration grapes are softly pressed. At the same time the residual 50% of the grapes are directly put into the presses prior to crushing. The first juice (the "flower") is then separated from the skins through a gentle pressing. Following these two vinification methods the wine is kept in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature,where the fermentation is carried betweenf 18-20 °C.
Once the fermentation is finished, the wine obtained from cryomaceration is then put together with the one obtained with traditional method and stored at 5 °C in order to prevent the malolactic fermentation to take place.
Ageing: the wine is kept in steel tanks for 4-5 months at low temperature and on the finest dregsin order to improve the aromatic content and the "volume" of the wine.The wine is subject to cold stabilisation process and bottled before summer.

The East to West facing vineyards produce yields of up to 49 hl/ha. Grapes are machine harvested in September. Vinification Grapes are double manually sorted in both vineyard and winery, then subsequently destemmed but not crushed, going through a brief period of maceration on its skins before being pneumatically pressed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks, and the wine goes through further maceration post fermentation. The wine is then matured in French 225L oak barrels for 15 months, of which 80% was new oak.
