Winemaking

 

After careful harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and gently crushed. The must undergoes a 10-day maceration on the skins to ensure maximum colour and tannin extraction. Fermentation in stainless steel preserves the fresh, pure fruit character, while the wine’s balance is enhanced through expert ageing.
