Following a manual harvest, the wine is fermented with native yeasts and undergoes a long maceration on the skins. The wines are cold stabilized naturally by moving the wine from the barrel room to separate tanks in a part of the winery whose temperature is naturally regulated by the outdoor winter temperatures.
