The wine in both the tank and the barrels was kept on its solids (lees) throughout the aging period, contributing to the beautiful texture and body. The final wine is 30% barrel fermented.

In both batches, the grapes were hand picked and whole bunch pressed. The juice was settled overnight and naturally fermented using only native yeasts.
