    Vinification and aging

    The winemaking of Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens The 2017 vintage was crafted with meticulous care, respecting Burgundian traditions. The grapes were hand-sorted, destemmed, and placed in vats for fermentation with indigenous yeasts. A long maceration allowed for optimal extraction of aromas and tannins. The wine was then aged in French oak barrels, a proportion of which were new, for an undisclosed period to refine the tannins and enhance the complexity of the aromas. Finally, the wine was bottled and aged in the cellar for several months before release. (The exact duration was not disclosed.)
