Description
GENERAL INFORMATION
Grape: 100% Syrah
Soil types: The vineyards enjoy a hot, dry climate which promotes the development of aromas in the grapes during ripening, producing expressive wines.
Vineyard management: The vineyards are mechanized and trained using the espalier system. Technical expertise and strict plot management yield grapes at peak ripeness. The varietal is farmed organically and certified by a European organization
Winemaking: Harvesting is done partly by machine, partly by hand. Before the grapes enter the tanks, they are entirely destemmed. Fermentation lasts for 25 to 30 days at controlled temperatures with regular and frequent pumping over. Particular care is taken to restrict inputs. Wild yeast is used, the wines are not fined and the amount of SO2 is limited.
