A combination of machine and handpicked fruit was gently pressed and run to a mixture of new and used French oak barriques and stainless-steel tanks for fermentation. The wine rested on lees for seven months where it underwent a partial malolactic fermentation. It was gently stirred every few weeks to add texture and richness before it was blended and bottled.
