Wine is pumped into stainless steel tanks, yeast is added and fermentation is controlled between 10° and 13° C. 21 days fermentation. Sulphur added to protect the wine.

To develop the desired level of elegance, we carefully chose the finest grapes. This produces a crisp, light and yet complex wine.

Simply enjoyable and perfectly suited to any occasion, or no occasion at all.
