At the end of alcoholic fermentation, the coarse lees are removed in order to keep the best lees containing mostly yeasts that have contributed to the fermentation. During the following 120 days, the wine is kept in oak casks and undergoes a weekly lees stirring operation (milling using small sticks). This improves the texture and aroma of the wine through autolysis of yeast cells.
