Vinification

In the beginning of September the grapes were harvested in multiple steps to catch the perfect ripeness. After slow, gentle whole-bunch pressing the grapes are transferred to clay amphoras where they ferment and age for 24 months. This wine is the blend of the three best amphoras. Was bottled mid of July unfined, unfiltered and without the addition of SO2
