  • Vineyard & Winemaking Notes

    The rich soil and the mild winter temperatures with low rainfall allow the vines to regain their growth and production balance, reaching excellent ripening during the summer months. After the harvest the grapes are destemmed and crushed, then fermented in temperature-controlled  cement tanks with their indigenous yeasts. Malolactic fermentation occurs spontaneously. The wine ages in concrete tanks and in large untoasted l barrels, before being blended. This is followed by refinement for a few months in the bottle.
