Grapes are grown using biodynamic treatments, such as cow horn manure, nettle and horsetail, and are developed densely to encourage the roots to deepen. They use cuttings from their best vines to spread them, instead of the more common practice of cloning. The grapes themselves are hand-picked and are not de-stemmed, and the fermentation comes from only indigenous yeasts found naturally on the grapes.
