Production

The grapes were harvested manually at the perfect point of maturation, from different plots and immediately processed in the cellar. After destemming and gentle crushing, the grapes were sent to stainless steel vats, where alcoholic fermentation took place. During this phase, gentle macerations are carried out at a controlled temperature. After fermentation, it aged in 225L French oak barrels for 9 months. Before bottling, the wine was slightly stabilized and filtered.

Maturation

100% Oak french barrels
