The grapes themselves, harvested manually into small cases (generally in the last ten days of September) are pressed and removed from the bunch, and then the skins are macerated for 8-10 days.
The must bloom ferments in steel and also undergoes malolactic fermentation. Controlled refermentation in autoclave follows with the related introduction of effervescence.
Bottling follows, and then at least three months of refinement in bottles before marketing.
