After two days of cold swelling on the skin, the fermentation process was completed at temperatures between 25°C - 28°C. The malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks fitted with oak staves. The wine matured for 14 months in small French oak barrels, 33% of which were new wood and 67% second and third wood.
