All grapes from our own vineyards are picked by hand. This implies rigorous selection directly on the vine - only fully ripe, unscathed fruit ends up in the cellar. By the way: we have no irrigation systems in our vineyards. It is true that in extremely dry years it may happen that we forgo one or another harvest from young vineyards. On the other hand, the vines will root substantially more deeply, thus releasing extra aromas and flavors as well as power into the grapes.

In the Press House
And now we've got to be quick!
The temperature is up, and so the grapes must be protected against oxidation
from exposure to the air.
The must comes out of the press beautifully fresh and green.
