Harvested by hand at peak ripeness, the grapes are then sorted, 100% destemmed, and placed in vats. Pre-fermentation maceration takes place at 10°C. Maceration lasts between 15 and 20 days, with a preference for infusion. After racking, pressing, and two weeks of static settling, the wine is transferred to 5- to 7-year-old barrels for malolactic fermentation and to begin aging for 10 months, followed by 2 months of consolidation. A single racking and no filtration are performed before bottling. This is a wine for pure enjoyment, a departure from the meticulous aging process of the Domaine's other wines.
