From the vineyard, the Chardonnay crates are placed in a refrigeration cell which has a temperature of 4°C, for the duration of 24 - 36 hours. The grapes cool down and reach a temperature of 10°C (50°F). This process allows a better extraction of varietal aromas. The cooled grapes are brought to the press for the soft pressing of the whole bunches, from which is extracted not more than 50% of the must flower. Afterwards the fermentation takes place at a temperature between 15 and 16° C (59 and 61° F) and the stay on yeasts continues until the moment of assemblage. The draft cuvée includes small percentages of the wine fermented in second and third passage barriques.
