Thus, much of the vineyard work continues to be done by hand. The soil is mostly granite with some sand and a very thin top soil. In the cave, the grapes are fermented using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in both medium and small sized oak barrels, with a small percentage of new oak. 16 months in barrel and then bottled with a light fining and no filtration.
