    Vinification and aging

    In the winery, the actions are guided by Alexandre and Guillaume Thienpont. Their aim is to produce a wine that develops on its own, from the initial fermentation to bottling, without the use of yeasts or exogenous products. The wine must tell its own story, not ours.
