Wine Making

The grapes are hand-picked, sorted and 80% of the wine is made from whole bunches. During the 15-day vatting period, between 5 and 7 cap punchings are carried out, as well as pumping over. After pressing, the wines are settled for 2 weeks and placed in barrels. 40% of the wine is matured in new barrels and 60% in barrels aged between 1 and 5 years. After 13 months of ageing, the wines are racked into vats, rested for 3 months and bottled without filtering or fining.
