Vinification of the 2nd Pez Saint-Estèphe from Château de Pez

Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot grapes form the basis for the first-class and wonderfully powerful 2nd Pez Saint-Estèphe cuvée from Château de Pez. The vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on limestone and gravel soils in Bordeaux. After the grape harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. This is followed by fermentation in small wooden vats at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
