A cold pre-fermentation maceration followed at 8 ° C for 3 days, followed by vinification in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats.

After fermentation a portion of the wine ages for several months in wooden barrels while the rest remains in stainless steel.

After the vinification in vats, the wine was then filled into the famous oak casks located in the equally famous tunnel of the Colline de Géronde cellars.

This is why Quinta do Noval uses two different methods: the traditional lagares, and vinification in closed stainless steel vats in the Guedes vat room.

Inspired by the traditional methods used by brewers, he introduced a longer fermentation at a lower temperature and finally a cold settling as part of the vinification in tanks.

La Réserve Personnelle is bottled in December of the year following its harvest, i.e. globally after fourteen-month aging on the winemaking lees in buried tanks.
