in the vineyard : The average age of these vines is 10-11 years old and all are trellised. The production is on average 13 tons/ha. Supplementary irrigation is done through the growing season.

about the harvest: Harvesting usually starts in the second last week of January and stretches until mid February. Harvesting is done at night for the simple reason to receive the grapes at low temperatures to capture the maximum fruit.

in the cellar : Fermentation takes place at low temperatures (12° - 14° C). After fermentation the wine is kept on its fine lees for 2-3 months before stabilisation.
