Transferred again and aged for 36 months in 590 225-litre American oak barrels, most of them made by the winery's own cooperage. Clarification with fresh egg whites before bottling. Production limited to 174.124 bottles of 75 cl. A minimum of 36 months of aging in a bottle rack in the cellar's drafts before being marketed."
