Harvest & Vinification
The grapes are manually harvested, and whole bunches were transferred into stainless steel lagares equipped with mechanized stomping devices, where they macerated for a short period of time. Lastly the wine went through malolactic fermentation in old wooden barrels (70% in 228 L barrels and 30% in 2000 L), where it also matured for 22 months.
