Winemaker’s Notes

​

Chateau Aimée is a small 30 acre vineyard with vines that are around 30 years old which practices sustainable farming. The grapes are hand-picked and sorted. They are cold macerated for 4-5 days before fermentation, both taking place in concrete and stainless steel vats. Then they go through a long maceration post fermentation of 4 weeks with daily pump overs. Aged in vats for 12 months and then moved to new French Oak barrels for 2 years.
