Wine making
It follows the traditional process with destemmed grapes. The grapes are processed in small tanks and cold macerated for 2 or 3 days. Fermentation lasts about 7 days and the total vatting time is about 15-18 days. AGEING The wine enters the barrels after a short period of natural rest following malolactic fermentation. It remains in new American oak for 18 months, during which time the processes and reactions that allow it to mature properly take place under appropriate humidity and temperature conditions. Finally, the wine is aged for a minimum of 60 months in the bottle.
Ruby-red colour with medium-high depth of intensity, this wine achieves the desired balance and fine bouquet through its cask ageing and maturation. It is meaty and full, with a highly expressive, elegant finish and a long, serene aftertaste.
