| Wine making | The grapes are destemmed and undergo a long, soft crushing, resulting in a low must yield. The must is fermented in a 2,200-litre foudre of 15-year-old French Vosges oak. Fermentation in foudre results in a low oak extraction but an oxidative rise that allows the wine to remain in contact with its lees without racking until after malolactic fermentation, which develops spontaneously. After the first racking, the wine remains in contact with the fine lees for a further three months until bottling. |
