The Blending

Each wine, whether white, rosé or red, is individually made.

At the end of wine production, the white grape varieties are blended then kept in either stainless steel vats or in ‘demi-muid' casks of 600 litres.

Syrah and Mourvèdre for rosé are blended either in vats (for Rosé Découverte) or in 350 litre barrels (for Fontanarosa).

With regard to red wines, some wines are ready immediately after fermentation, whilst others, such as Cupa Numismae, are kept variety by variety in barrels, for up to 18 months, depending on the vintage with blending taking place only after that stage.
