Some ferments are allowed to begin naturally and some are inoculated with cultured yeast. Regular pump overs during fermentation takes place to optimise extraction of aromas, flavours and tannins.

The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in barrels with regular monitoring and tasting to evaluate each parcel’s attributes.
