about the harvest: The grapes were harvested by hand between 19° to 20° Balling at the end of January and beginning of February.

in the cellar : The fruit was crushed and then cool-fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 13°C for a period of two to three weeks. No skin contact was allowed and only the free-run juice was used. The wine was left on the lees for almost two months prior to final blending.
