This is cofermented, winemaking involves leaving the grape skins and pips in contact with the juice for 35 days and then aging half in barrels, half in tanks for 6 months. This develops a naturally stable wine reducing the need other forms of stabilization like the use of high levels of Sulphur Dioxide. It is an ancient form of wine making which is gathering momentum around the world.
