Vinification
Manual harvest is carried out in shallow boxes, the grapes are crushed and the juice remains on the skin impress to favour the extraction of colour and the most noble aromatic precursors of Pinot Noir. Then there is a soft pressing, the fermentation and a long period of the base wine on the yeasts. It is stored in steel tanks and then bottled the following spring with selected added yeasts.
After a period of aging of at least 24-30 months the remuage is performed followed by the disgorgement with the addition of liqueur d'expedition and the subsequent packaging.
