Organic wine - processing, Domaine les Béates, Côteaux d'Aix en Provence AOC, Les Béatines, red

This year the wine harvest was particularly low for this organic red wine at 35 hl / hectare due to the dry weather. When fully ripe, the grapes were picked by hand, the stems removed and fermented for 15 to 21 days at a temperature of 25 to 35 ° C. The subsequent maturation of the wine in stainless steel tanks refined this red wine until it was bottled in autumn of the following year.
