Grapes are grown on mixed gravel soil with sand and small stones that rest on oceanic limestone subsoils. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats with successive rounds of pumping over to allow a gentle extraction. After this the wine is run off and transferred to stainless-steel vats for malolactic fermentation. Ageing takes place in stainless steel for 6 months.
