Sugar levels rise rapidly, and the winemaker carefully monitors this balance to preserve the desired acidity, aromas, flavours and phenolic compounds that will define the style of the future wine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">As sugar concentration increases, so does the wine&#8217;s potential alcohol level. Harvesting too early would result in lighter wines with high acidity, while waiting too long can produce wines with higher alcohol and less aromatic freshness. The winegrower must find the perfect balance between freshness and ripeness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It is also during this period that the grapes develop their aromatic and flavour profile. Many of the compounds that shape the character of the wine are formed now. Herbaceous notes gradually fade, giving way to fruity, floral, spicy and mineral aromas.<\/p>\n<p>Each vineyard block is monitored according to its grape variety and the specific conditions of temperature, humidity and sunlight exposure. Every day, these vineyards receive our full attention. Great wine is created in partnership with nature\u2014through its generosity, its surprises, its unpredictability, and the experience of the winegrower who knows how to understand and work with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The vineyards have reached the final stage of their growth.
