The wine is partially matured in French oak for 12 months to add complexity and silkiness. After tasting and blending trials, the wine was racked and prepared for bottling.

The fermentation was allowed to start naturally. 70% was then inoculated with selected strains of Burgundian yeast, while the rest was left to continue naturally. During the fermentation, the skin cap was punched through by hand over 2-3 times per day. The wine was transferred to French oak barrels, stainless steel tanks and 5000 litre wooden vats where malolactic fermentation took place.
