Picked a week earlier than normal and brought to the cellar for de-stemming, sorting and fermentation in open top fermenters. Cap punched every 2 hours for 60 hours until right extraction achieved. After pressing, malolactic fermentation in 19 French oak barrels (40% new) and 2 American oak barrels. The wine matured for 21 months in these barrels.
