Winemaking and Aging
Grapes are manually harvested in pierced boxes. Then they are destemmed and put in tanks. Punching of the cap is made during alcoholic fermentation without pumping over.
Fermentation on the skins lasts between 15 and 20 days. After a light settling of the juice, wines are put in new oak barrels (70 %), for a period of ageing between 12 and 18 months.
Vinification and maturing are carefully followed by Robert Vernizeau, a talented winemaker.
Wine is bottled in Burgundy Sommelier bottles.
