- Vinification: Grapes are handpicked, before being destemmed and crushed. The juice is fermented on skins for a few hours, leaving it lightly infused with the wine’s characteristic blush. Secondary fermentation takes place in sealed steel tanks at a controlled temperature, with the wine’s bubbles being created during this time.
