Origin and Vinification

Coming from 4 hectares of vineyards located at over 400 meters above sea level, Pinot Noir benefits from a calcareous, sandy soil rich in fossils. The careful harvest follows a delicate destemming and pressing process, with a cold maceration of approximately 3 days. The alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place in French barriques, where the wine matures for 10 months. Further maturation in the bottle in the historic cellars of the castle completes the process, making the wine ready to be appreciated.
