After destemming, the berries were carefully selected and gently crushed. Each vineyard parcel was kept as a separate lot throughout fermentation and aging. Alcoholic fermentation lasted for a period of 10 days and was followed by an additional period of 10-12 days of maceration on the skins. The wine was racked, still separated by vineyard of origin, and transferred to Hungarian oak barrels with a small percentage going into French oak barrels, where malolactic fermentation and aging took place for several months. During this phase, the different lots were tasted consistently to determine the maximum expression of oak aging, then blended once maturity was achieved. The wine was bottled on the estate and was left to age in the bottle before being released for sale.
