From pruning to de-budding, from green harvesting to grape-picking, the human touch brings out the very best of the terroir.

The fully manual harvesting campaign starts when the berries have reached optimal maturity. Plot by plot, grapes are picked in the early morning hours to ensure optimal preservation of their full aromatic potential. The harvest brings the work of an entire year to a close, and marks the beginning of a new phase, both in the vineyard with pruning, and in the winery with vinification and maturing.
