The grapes were crushed by a combination of the pigeage method (using feet) and conventional mechanical crushing. Pigeage continued in open fermenters throughout fermentation for 30% of the wine with the other 70% being lightly pumped over twice per day. The grapes were seeded with burgundy yeast. The wine was pressed off the skins at 2° Baumé with 50% of the juice completing primary and malolactic fermentation in French and Hungarian barrels (a combination of new and used). This portion was matured in oak for 12 months. The remaining 50% completed primary/malolactic fermentations and
maturation in stainless steel. The wine was lightly filtered before bottling.
