Vinification
Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes undergo gentle destemming and crushing, followed by 10 days of maceration with a submerged cap and manual pump-overs. Gentle pressing concludes the process, separating the wine from the skins without affecting its typical notes.
Fermentation
Slow fermentation at 25°C with selected yeasts for 10 days of aromatic metamorphosis. Full malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks completes the cycle, preserving the vegetal and red flower notes.
Aging
After a brief natural decantation, the wine rests in stainless steel tanks for 180 days on fine lees before being bottled. Two months in bottle complete the aging.
