    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Château Cos Labory is a meticulous process, blending tradition and innovation. After the grapes are hand-harvested, they are carefully sorted before being destemmed and crushed. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, preserving the freshness of the aromas. Aging in oak barrels, some of which are new, enriches the wine with subtle woody notes while respecting the typicity of the terroir. This aging method, combined with rigorous monitoring, contributes to the creation of harmonious wines that are both powerful and elegant.
