in the vineyard : Vines were pruned to two-bud spurs during July and August. Shoots were removed during October, leaving only two to three per hand-spaced spur. As yields were naturally low, no bunch removal was necessary.

in the cellar : After a light pressing the grapes were coldfermented in stainless steel tanks at an average temperature of 14°C to preserve the inherent varietal character and freshness in the wine. Each varietal was separately vinified before blending. The best possible traits of each cultivar were considered for the best harmony, complexity and balance in the final blend.
