Winemaking

Only the finest grapes from our estate vineyards are selected for our riserva. fruit parcels from different sites underwent separate ferment and aging providing winemaker with an enticing rage of flavors and texture to work with. fermentations took place on the skins separately in small stainless steell tanks which were monitored individually. punch down and déléstages were enlisted according to each must. to help round out the wine while obtaining optimal acidity and freshness all of the juice underwent a secondary natural malolactic fermentation - half in stainless steel and the balance in nautral french oak . 10 months in oak casks(15 to 30hl) and small barrels(225l) with only 10% new oak. the wine underwent an additional 12 months of bottle maturation prior to release.
