Viticulture follows biodynamic principles, with vines grown on calcareous soils, high densities and manual harvesting at full ripeness.
-
The must is fermented exclusively in used Burgundian barriques, with indigenous yeasts and minimal sulfites. No fining or filtration is required before the secondary fermentation.
-
As per Selosse tradition, no maceration is practiced on the skins: only free-run must fermented in wood to enhance purity and finesse.
-
After the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, often spontaneous, the wine ages in barriques and foudres for at least 36 months on the lees before dégorgement.
- Further bottle aging follows. For the 2009 vintage, the overall aging period exceeded 4 years.
