Winemaking
The berries are destemmed and sorted during vatting. This is followed by cold pre-fermentation maceration and then vatting for 3 weeks to 1 month. Aging takes place in vats. The Hipster de Barbe vintage comes from clay-limestone soil. The Merlot present there undergoes moderate water stress which allows the grapes to reach optimal maturity.
