Vinification
Manual grape harvest in boxes of 15 kg. The grapes are destemmed and subjected to a soft press. The grape-juice obtained is macerated during 6-8 hours, let settled and slightly debourbage. Once the spontaneous fermentation is done in stainless tanks, and immediately after the devatting, the batonage of the lees takes place during approximately 12 months, depending on the vintage year. Upon completion is decanted, filtered and bottled.
Vineyard
Grapes from 2 vineyards close to each other to obtain the maximum typicity of the variety, with vines of an average age of 65 years and mostly sandy soils.
Maturation
Aged on lees 12 months in stainless tanks
