Winemaking and ageing
Selective picking from the most valuable plots, vines around 40 years old, each grape vinified separately after two rounds of hand sorting.
Classic maceration at 24–26 °C: 30 days for Cabernet, 21 for Merlot, 19 for Fetească Neagră; malolactic in barrique. Twelve months in Romanian oak, 75% new. At least 30 months in bottle.
