Technical Information
The grapes undergo strict controls on the vineyards to determine the correct moment to be harvested and transformed into a wine with the right amount of sugar and acidity. The must macerates in contact with skins for 2-3 days. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 22-24°C results in a perfect balance of fruit and tannins.
