75% is fermented in 228l French oak barrels and 25% in 400l Italian clay amphorae for a period of 9 months. The amphora has the natural ability to keep the pomace in constant suspension during fermentation.
The must is then matured “sur-lie” for 9 months, with occasional punching down.
No sulfide is added during winemaking, but only with bottling.
