These specially selected grapes are machine harvested at night, while still cold, to preserve fresh fruit flavours. After the crush, the grapes are macerated at 8-10°C for 4-6 hours to enhance varietal aromas. The must is clarified by natural sedimentation at 10-12 °C. After the must is pumped to a fermentation tank and selected yeast is added, keeping controlled temperature at 14-18 °C about 21 days
