maître distillateur
The grape harvest typically commences in late September or early October, with mechanical harvesting ensuring optimal grape quality. Before fermentation, the musts are meticulously raked and only high-quality lees are used in winemaking to guarantee rich flavor profiles. To prevent the formation of higher alcohols, fermentation temperatures are strictly monitored, utilizing state-of-the-art technology. Following the completion of both alcoholic and malolactic fermentations, the natural and genuine wines are distilled promptly to maintain their remarkable quality, ensuring that each bottle is a testament to the care and expertise employed throughout the winemaking process.
From Our Wine Yard To-the Table
We’re incredibly proud to offer a selection of exceptional wines, all made from the remarkable UGNI BLANC grape variety! With unwavering commitment, we selectively choose only the finest grapes, taking care to ensure that each one is perfectly ripened. Thanks to its resilience and late maturing, this grape produces wines with a bright and refreshing taste, boasting a lower alcohol content that is sure to delight.
