Interesting Facts
Red wine Chateau La Gaffeliere is made from a blend of two grape varieties - Merlot and Cabernet Franc, grown in the vineyards of Chateau La Gaffeliere. The harvest was hand-picked into small boxes. Before passing the grapes through the sorting machine, they were kept for 12 hours at a temperature of 7 ° C. Fermentation took place in stainless steel vats at controlled temperatures. During alcoholic fermentation, the must was pumped over. Malolactic fermentation was carried out in steel tanks (75%) and barrels (25%). Finally, one half of the wine was aged in barriques, and the other - in French oak barrels for 15 months.
