Product details

North exposition and very schist soil. Grapes are harvested by grape varieties and plots in boxes of 44 pounds and put in cold at 5/6ºC. After fully stalked and crushed, they fermented in lagares (sort of top open ferment tanks), in order to enhance the richness of the grapes and skins go gentle to the juice. After malolactic fermentation, the wine matured in used French oak barrels of 225 and 400 liters, during about 10 months.
