They undergo carbonic maceration at 29\u00b0C to enhance fruit aromas. After 25 days, the free-run juice is separated, and the grapes are gently pressed. The remaining Syrah and Grenache are harvested later, between late September and early October, and are vinified traditionally: destemmed, then fermented on skins for 10 to 15 days. The grapes are then pressed and placed in concrete vats to complete malolactic fermentation. Finally, post-fermentation blending takes place, followed by partial aging in French oak barrels.<\/p>\n<p>Cellaring potential: 3\u201310 years.<\/p>\n<div class=\"gap\" style=\"line-height: 20px; height: 20px;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Clos St Michel is undoubtedly the most popular of our Minervois red wine.
