Winemaking: A first passage is done in the vineyard and approximately 35% of the ripest clusters are harvested. The grapes are de-stemmed and fermented whole berry with 1 pump over a day in stainless-steel vats. De-vatting on the 5^th day with only the free run juice retained. A second passage is done, 4 to 6 days after the first passage, to harvest the remaining grapes. The whole clusters are put into the stainless-steel tanks with the fermenting free run juice from the first passage. The whole clusters and free run juice ferment together for 10 to 15 days, after which the whole clusters are de-vatted and pressed. The juice from the press is put back into tank with the free run juice to complete fermentation. Only naturally occurring indigenous yeasts are used in the fermentation.

Maturation: Aged 7 months in stainless-steel tanks. 1 month prior to bottling a low dose of sulfur is added. The wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered.
