The grapes are hand-picked at full ripeness and rigorously selected.

Aging takes place in French oak barrels for about 12-15 months, with expert management of the wood so as not to overshadow the typicality of the terroir. The wine is bottled with minimal doses of sulfites to preserve its vital energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/b\u003e This Pinot Noir is perfect with flavorful yet elegant meat dishes.
