Vinification
The vinification starts with the fermentation in stainless steel vats and cone-shaped wooden barrels where grape skin maceration takes place at a controlled temperature of 26 C°, with repeated 'soft pumping over' and manual pressing. Wine aging in barriques takes place over 18 months, with permanent monitoring which indicates the evolution of the wine. After the bottling process, the bottles refine horizontally for at least 8 months so that the wine may continue its maturation to the point of reaching the best organoleptic characteristics.
