ELABORATION
Firstly, a pre-fermentative maceration takes place during 3 days. Then, the fermentation is done in tapered stainless-steel vats of 20.000 litres with light daily overpumpings. After finishing the primary fermentation, the maceration continues together with the skins for the next 5 days. Once the malolactic fermentation is completed, the wine is transferred into French oak barrels for the next 14 months. Afterwards, the wine is bottled, where it will spend a minimum of 12 months before entering the market.
