In the cellar, the grapes ferment in oak and cement vats as well as earthenware jars. After plot-by-plot vinification, the wine is matured in French oak barrels whose proportion of new wood is around 60%.

Smooth, the palate is nevertheless structured by beautiful tannins that become refined with time.
