Technical Information
Grapes are hand picked and transported to the winery in small baskets in order to preserve the bunches whole and undamaged. Then the grapes are destemmed and proceed to cold maceration (for 2-3 days at very low temperatures) to express the maximum the extraction of fruit aromas and soft tannins. After fermentation, a post-fermentation maceration is carried out to obtain a mature, complex and elegant wine with a soft, round palate.
