The vineyard was harvested on 17 March 2020. Most of the grapes were destemmed, with 16% whole bunches added to the ferment. The grapes underwent cold maceration for two days in the tank, after which fermentation commenced. The wine spent a total of 22 days on the skins before pressing. Malolactic fermentation and ageing occurred in 500-litre French oak barrels.
