After
tasting each vat, the wine is run
off . For the next 12 to 14 months, 1/3 of the wine is
housed in new barrels
1/3 in one-year-old barrels
and 1/3 in vats. Every three months, the wine is racked
to separate the wine from the lees and get rid of the carbon
dioxide that accumulates during fermentation. The wines, made
from Merlot and Cabernet grapes, are then blended and fined.
They will be bottled on the premises during the course of
their second spring.
