VINEYARD: Sitting at 400m above sea level, the vineyard is bush-trained, but not tied. The vineyard where the grapes for this wine are produced respects the specification of High Biodiversity. Within the farm measures to increase a biodiverse agro-ecosystem are observed. Defensive treatments are minimal even with those allowed in organic cultivation. Irrigation is not practiced.

VINIFICATION:  The fermentation is spontaneous thanks to the yeasts naturally present in the skins. No chemicals are added. The maceration process takes 10-12 days with manual pumping over. Only at the end of fermentation is a small amount of sulfites added and does not exceed 15 mg /l .
