Making Techniques After picking the grapes by hand, we press them straightaway to ferment the juice without skins. We don’t add any yeasts and keep the alcoholic fermentation in check by temperature control. 'Vin Doux Naturel' winemaking involves stopping fermentation to preserve the grapes’ natural sweetness. During vinification, we watch the vats day and night and add the fortifying spirit at just the right moment.

Cellaring/Ageing Potential Ready to drink immediately, it will also keep almost indefinitely
