The production philosophy embraced by the winery pursues the utmost respect for plants, fauna and the ecosystem in general, leading it to work in synergy with nature to guarantee expressive fidelity to the terroir.

The grapes are harvested by hand, subjected to double selection in the cellar and then mellowed for spontaneous alcoholic fermentation, accompanied by gentle extraction during maceration. Once the fermentation process is complete, the mass is transferred to \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, 1\/3 of which are new, for ageing for 15 months, followed by a further period in the bottle before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, the Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Chateu Lapelletrie \"Canopée de Lapelletrie\" displays an intense ruby red mantle.
