Vinification
Hand harvesting in small crates. After de-stemming and crushing, the temperature of the grapes is dropped to 8-10ºC for the maceration. A light pressing follows, after which the free-run wine is separated and decanted through the process of natural sedimentation at low temperature.
Vineyard
Hilly terrain, soil mainly calcareous with dark patches, 260 meters above sea level.
Maturation
Four months on the lees in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and at least three months in bottle.
