We obtain exceptional grapes, with a maximum yield per hectare of 4,000 kg, reaching a high concentration of aromas, colour and noble tannins.

Subsequently, alcoholic fermentation is controlled in French Oak wood cone with autochthonous yeast, at 26 degrees and over-encubed for a total of 28 days.

Malolactic fermentation takes place slowly and slowly without the addition of bacteria, at 22ºC for 20 days in new French oak barrels. Subsequently, the wine rests for 22 months in new French oak barrels of selected grain, passing through 4 different types of oak.
