The soil in the vineyard is calcareous and littered with large round pebbles. The grape harvest for this excellent red organic wine is of course carried out by hand. During a six-week mild maceration and fermentation, the must is regularly pumped over the berry skins floating on the liquid and these are repeatedly mixed with the must. This process means that all of the ingredients that are important for the wine can be extracted from the berry skins. After 12 months of maturation in the tank, this red organic wine refines and, as it matures, approaches its drinking maturity.
