The Bottling Process at Olivier Laflaive

There are four important steps towards producing each bottle of wine at Olivier Laflaive. Not following the process in a strict manner means jeopardizing a glorious bottle of what Benjamin Franklin proclaimed is the very gift of God, due to his love for us all.

Rinsing

Each bottle must get thoroughly rinsed to avoid any contamination with the wine. Just like you want a clean cup before pouring in a drink, such is the case with a bottle of Olivier Laflaive wine.

Filling the bottle

From the aged casket, it is now crucial to fill the wine at a slow and steady pace. Slow and steady wins the race; if performed hastily, there are risks of spilling and staining the label. This wastes both time and money.

Seal on the capsule

To preserve the wine in the bottle and therefor the taste, a cork must seal the bottle. This involves a great amount of pressure. Making sure the bottle is corked air-tight is imperative to preserve the delicious taste, and avoid the negative consequence of the wine going stale or breathing too much. Never let a bottle of wine on the market breathe.

Labeling the bottle

The final trademark step is to apply the label to the bottle. This is crucial for the customer so that he or she knows the year for the wine, as well as who made it and any historical facts of Olivier Laflaive's business.

Drink up, you now know the essentials for how to properly produce a bottle of wine with the Olivier Laflaive name.
