The clear juices are then intoned into oak barrels (1 to 3 years old) for alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. A breeding period will follow on fine lees for about 11 months, punctuated by stirrings. The frequency of stirring is adapted according to depending on the characteristics of the vintage. A refining of a few months in stainless steel vats is then carried out, followed by a light filtration and fining if necessary
