The cuvée is transferred into pressure tanks to referment at the particularly low temperature of 16 °C in order to preserve the aromatic potential of the base wine. It takes about a month for the wine to acquire the desired pressure and residual sugar. Once refermentation has been inhibited, the wine stays in the pressure tank in contact with the lees for about another three months before it is prepared for bottling.
