A special wine making: the Ancestral Dioise Method

This method consists to preserve the flavours and the freshness of grapes with ancestral techniques, even if nowadays, modern materials help us.

After the grape harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the press in order to be delicately pressed. The juices go to the vats and are cool down. A very slow fermentation will begin and last several months at slow temperature. Putting in bottles will be done before that it arrives at the end.

Therefore, it is the first fermentation that continues in bottles. The foam is natural, without adding of liquor. This fermentation will not be complete: not all the sugars of grape will be transformed in alcohol and the Clairette de Die will be very light in alcohol and very fruity. In order to stop for good the process, wines will be filtered. For this, we have to empty bottles then to refill them up without loose too much pressure.

Come to visit our cellar, you will understand everything!
