Description: It was harvested from September to October. On average, all the juices Title 13. ° D natural. A settling occurs 12 hours after pressing. 20% of the crop is processed maceration for 12 hours. Then it is put into vats for fermentation, which lasts about four weeks. Exceptionally more than one and a half months this year! All my wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts, there is no yeast. Meanwhile, there is continuous and strict supervision of the fermentation temperature, it ranges from 13 ° -14 ° at the beginning of fermentation to 16 ° -17 ° at the end. Thanks in part to the temperature control I get a soft Sauvignon, aromatic and long finish. Once the residual sugar is less than 1.5 g / hl, the wine is racked, and sulfite (5 g / hl). The breeding on fine lees will be one or two pumpings following the evolution. The wines are cold stabilized.
