The Gamay grapes are placed whole cluster into tanks that will be sealed and fermented on their own with natural vineyard yeast.

Addition of CO2 gas through dry ice, to flush the tank of all oxygen. Gamay done Beaujolais style undergoes anaerobic fermentation using CO2 instead of oxygen, giving it it's characteristic candied raspberry nose.
