Indigenous Merwah vines, over 150 year old Ainata, Bekaa Valley (1,700m) – Picked in middle of October and crushed into 2-proportional lots, then fermented in stainless tanks and amphoras.
The wine is fermented on skins for 3 weeks, the cap is gently broken by hand a few times a day, and is then racked off skins in the middle of November into half neutral barrels and half stainless tanks.
The temperature at the winery reaches -5 degrees celsius, consistently in winter, allowing for natural cold stabilization of the wine.
MLF happens in Spring, the wine is bottled in May.
