Winemaking
The main goal is to obtain the full maturation of the grapes. To achieve the goal, the grapes are manually harvested in the morning, twice green-pruning ("esporgar" and "escabellar"). In the celler, the grapes are extracted from the vines for preservation. The grapes undergo a pneumatic press to prevent breakage of the branches allowing extraction of high-quality juice. The grape juice is kept with lees in suspension at a low temperature for 3 days. After the removal of lee, the alcoholic fermentation takes place at an increasing temperature. After fermentation, the wine is kept in oaks tanks.
Alcohol: 13.5%
