That means no added yeast, enzymes or SO2 during the élévage. The wines are fermented in small tanks, and then transferred to small, mostly neutral barrels for 8-10 months depending on the wine. The reds are all fermented without de-stemming, with a little carbonic influence to accentuate the fruit. At bottling, there is a tiny addition of Sulphur to help keep the mouse away as the wines travel far and wide, but well within (or below) the range of his Natural Wine brethren.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buvons Wine LB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47773019406523,"sku":null,"price":41.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.buvonswine.com\/products\/maxime-crotet-aligote","provider":"Buvons Wine LB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
