Harvest was in late September/early October at yields of 11,000kg/ha (about 60hl/ha). Fermentation is in conrete vats and stainlees steel tanks. About half the harvest is macerated a few days on the skins during fermentation.  Malolactic fermentation does not take place.  Aged on its lees for 6 to 12 months, with six staggered bottlings taking place.
