Winemaking and Aging
To preserve their integrity, grapes
are carefully harvested and sorted
out by hand.
Before beginning the alcoholic
fermentation we make a cold prefermentation during 4 to 6 days to
work on the phelonic component's
exctraction. Then full maceration
lasts for 15 days during which we'll
use only pigeages (punching the
cap). Intensity and numbers are lead
to the concentration of tannins,
perfumes and colour.
Alcoholic fermentation is realized
with natural yeasts.
After maceration, free and press
wines are separated for aging.
Aging process is taking place 100%
in traditional Burgundian 228 liters
barrels during 13 months with 35%
of new barrels.
We only use French oak coming
mainly from Bourgogne, Allier and
Vosges forests.
The wine spends 4 months in tanks
