Production notes
Mechanical work of the soil or use of between-rows grass. Poussard pruning. Removal of the laterals and manual repositioning of the clusters. Thinning out of the leaves before the harvest. Concret vats. Fermentations : temperatures from 26 to 28ºC ; 2 to 3 pumping- over a day. Malolactic fermentations in vats.
