Fermented in American oak barrels to reach 12% then held for three months in wood. It is clarified by a natural decantation through a soft cellulose filter directly to the bottle to keep its natural aromas and flavours. Oak Ageing: 12 Months in American Oak. 100% of the wine is oaked, with no new oak used.
