in the cellar : The grapes were crushed and transferred to fermentation tanks where they were pumped over regularly. After alcoholic fermentation the wine was racked and the skins gently pressed. The tanks were inoculated with malolactic bacteria to complete the secondary fermentation. The wine spent a couple of months on French oak staves after which it was racked.
