We practice a well-reasoned “fight” ( a curative treatment, and also slightly preventive): manual clearing of weeds ( plowing, plough), “vendange en vert” or green harvest ( namely cutting off grape-bunches and leave only 7 or 8 per vine stock, in order for them to reach full maturity and to improve their quality). |

The vinification of Red Wines is traditional and it’s performed with great care. |
| |
The Red Wines’ winemaking involves the following phases: |
| |
 |
Hand Grape-Harvesting, with manual sorting on the spot |
 |
Complete destemming |
 |
Vatting : pulp= flavor, grape seeds= tannin, and grape skin= color; |
 |
Maceration ( between 12 and 16 days): extraction of flavors, color, and tannin |
 |
Punching down the cap and Pumping it over: to homogenize and aerate the must |
 |
Alcoholic fermentation : the sugar contents turn into alcohol (carried out by yeasts). |
 |
Devatting : pumping the grape juice |
 |
Storing wine in barrels or in vats: it depends on the wine type, the year, and the wine appellation. |
 |
Filtration |
 |
Bottling, bottle-washing, labeling, commercialization |
