After primary fermentation the wine goes through malolactic fermentation to give richness to the wine. Once this is complete, it is then inoculated for second fermentation in bottle under crown cap. After 36 months on lees the bottles are then riddled on wooden pupitres and then disgorged with the wines final dosage.
