Vinifikation
The grapes for this first-class Pinot Noir were hand-picked in the early morning hours and transported in small baskets to the conveyor belt, where the berries were meticulously sorted before moving on to destemming. The destemmed grapes, as whole berries, underwent a 3-4 day maceration period before fermenting in small open-top fermentation tanks with a capacity of 500 kg. After 10-16 days of regular punch-downs, the wine was transferred to barrels, where malolactic fermentation was completed. The wine was separated from the malolactic yeast and then returned to the barrels, where it was allowed to mature for 11 months. Prior to bottling, the wine was lightly filtered. The artisanal barrels used for aging originated from Burgundy and the Rhône region. 12% of the barrels were new oak, with 88% being second and third-fill wood.
