The grapes are harvested in the coolest hours of the day and the wine is left to ferment in conical wooden vats at a controlled temperature. At the end of the process, it is refined for 15 months, first in new 600-litre demi-muids and then in barriques.
Rich in texture with a lingering finish and versatile enough to complement just about any cuisine. Oak aging rounds out the palate and gives the wine its body. Deep rich berry compote flavors. Pinot from beginning to silky finish.

Dark garnet-ruby color. A mix of small red fruits - raspberries,currants, cherries, rhubarb and pomegranate - with toffee andcola nut, beginning to show secondary characteristics.
Individual parcels of Pinot Noir are hand harvested and destemmed for fermentation in tank. Fermentation by indigenous yeasts from our organically farmed vineyard drive the fermentation.
