Terroir

La Marginale comes from a selection of old vines on the superb clay-limestone terroir of the Chaintres trench.

Harvest

Hand-harvested with sorting on a table at the winery reception, followed by 50% destemming. The remaining 50% is whole-cluster. The yield is 25 hl/ha.

Winemaking

Wine fermentation in wooden vats with very gentle pump-overs just to moisten the cap. Followed by a maceration of 22 to 24 days, depending on the desired wine style. Malolactic fermentation in 25 hl round wooden vats from Stockinger.
Vatting for 30 to 35 days and aging in new barrels for 18 to 24 months, depending on the vintage.
