We usually pick our grapes at the end of September for the Merlot and the beginning of October for the Cabernet but this can vary each year according to the weather conditions.

Three weeks before the estimated date of the harvest we pick a few grapes in order to control the progression of maturity and to wait for the optimal moment to harvest, this enables us to make the wine in the best conditions and to keep all the savour of the fruit.

We pick mechanically which allows us flexibility so we can pick according to the optimal ripeness of the different plots of vines and also we can pick at the right temperature. The grapes are de-stemmed and crushed as soon as they arrive at the winery.

The alcoholic fermentation is done in stainless steel vats, equipped for controlling the temperature so as to bring special care to each vat. A long period of vatting (3 to 4 weeks) allows us to obtain good extraction (daily pumping over). Daily controls and analyses with the assistance of an oenologue during the period of alcoholic and malolactic fermentations.
Gentle and respectful pressing using a vertical press.
A selection is made according to the vintages to choose the wine to be aged in oak barrels under the name of Vieux Château de Noailles.
After 18 to 24 months of ageing in vats or barrels our wines are bottled.
