Traditional Winemaking with Modern Precision
The winemaking process combines traditional craftsmanship with innovative techniques to ensure exceptional quality.

The remaining 20% uses an integral winemaking method in 400-liter barrels equipped with the Oxolyne system from Tonnellerie Baron.
Long maceration periods lasting from three weeks to one month allow the wine to develop impressive concentration, color, and tannic structure. Following fermentation, the wine matures for 15 months in French oak barrels, with 50% new oak barrels adding elegant toasted notes and complexity.
