Harvest | Between August and September, manual, at three different times to create three bases (acidity/technical maturity/overripe) to impart the exotic sensual notes typical of Viognier. |
Vinification | Grapes harvested by hand in crates are immediately transported to the winery, and after further sorting, destemming and cold pressing are carried out to allow the maceration in the press. Fermentation of the individual masses takes place separately and is deferred in time for the different harvest eras. Each one lasts more or less 20 days in stainless steel tanks, within which maturation is prolonged for 4 months, at a controlled temperature, thus promoting a natural decanting of the fermentation waste. |
