The grapes are harvested in successive passes or tries through the vineyard, and any unsatisfactory fruit is eliminated. Florent employs a viticultural technique known as vignes hautes et larges that is unique in the region he uses high training wires (over 6 feet) in order to maintain a large surface area of foliage and avoid the need for topping off the shoots. Rows in the vineyard are alternately ploughed and grassed, helping to maintain the soils microscopic fauna and avoid soil compression from tractors and other heavy machinery. The harvest is manual, and the fruit is transported in small plastic cages to minimize damage.Fermentation: The wines are fermented in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures on their lees; no wood is used in the winemaking or aging process, which Florent believes allows him to achieve a purer expression of site. Aging: The wine spends 9 months on the lees in tank before being bottled.
