Vinification |
Maceration and vinification take 2 to 3 weeks under controlled temperatures. Indigenous yeasts are used. Joseph Drouhin seeks total control of the process of extraction; extraction gives colour and substance but should never be detrimental to the finesse and typical character of the wine. "Pigeage"(punching down of the cap during fermentation): daily until half of fermentation is done; afterwards ("remontage") daily until the end of the fermentation. Pressing: vertical press; separation of free run juice and pressed juice. |
