After pressing, the juice is cold settled prior to the fermentation with selected yeasts at 15-18°C. Some portions of the blend generally undergo a period of extended lees contact and in tank battonage or agitation of the lees in order to enhance the body and creamy texture of the wine. Maturation and storage in stainless steel tanks on yeast lees prior to preparation for bottling.
