All of our red wines are hand picked, hand sorted and undergo a cold soak for extra flavour extraction. The grapes are then fermented for 2-6 weeks followed by barrel ageing between 9 months – 36 months. We also have an extensive Appassimento program by drying the grapes by approx 30%-40% which provides for intensity and complexity in the wines.
