Vineyard article for "Les Vallerots" |
| (last edited 4/12/2022 3:28:33 PM by KVM) On weinlagen-info The vine was planted on 0.77 hectares. It is located on the south side of the appellation, on a very limestone soil. It is set up in a deep valley, very cold in winter and hot in summer. The yield is about 35-40hl / hectare. WINE-MAKING We harvest manually, in cases of 25kg. The grapes are destemmed, not crushed, and put in tanks by gravity. A prefermentation maceration is made for 3 to 4 days. The fermentation is smooth and long, in natural yeasts. We punch the cap moderately and the vatting lasts 20 to 25 days. MATURING AND BOTTLING We age our wines in a cold cellar, in 30 to 50% of new barrels. The malolactic fermentation being later, we often bottle after 18/20 months. We rack one month before bottling.
