Product details

Winemaking:
The preparation of this wine begins in the vineyard where we select the best Muscat grapes to be harvested in ideal date. Upon receipt grapes, fermentation begins, lasting for about three days with intense skin maceration and temperature controlled 15-16ºC. The wine brandy is then added interrupting the fermentation in order to obtain a wine with a high alcohol content and residual sugar. Maceration already in the presence of wine brandy stands for 5-6 days at low temperature. After pressing the wines begin a process of aging in oak vats for 4-5 years where integration with the brandy will be completing. After aging, the wines are chosen to the final blend in order to obtain a wine with a mean age of 4 years.
