Terroir

Grape harvested in plots located at an altitude between 300 and 600 meters. The vineyards have the perfect balance to allow harvesting the grapes at its best ripening stage. The low yields per hectare allow us to obtain a concentrated and aromatic wine.

Vinification

De-stemmed and partially crushed, with a high proportion of full berries. 10 – 15 days maceration period with a daily overpumping. Controlled fermentation at 24 – 28º C with autochthonous yeasts, contained in the grapes themselves.

AGEING: Between 12 and 14 months in American Oak Barrel.
