Winemaking >
The first step in crafting this Chardonnay is picking the grapes at perfect maturity to create a rich white wine. The pressing is very gentle in a pneumatic press with an extraction of the premium juices only. The fermentation is driven in stainless steel vats with temperature control (16/18°C). To preserve the freshness of the wine, the malolactic fermentation is stopped. The wine is aged during 5 months with regular stirring before bottling.
