Vinification
The grapes are hand-picked and hand-sorted and the vinification occurs with whole berries. The wine stays in contact with the skins for more than 30 days. A small portion of Malbec was fermented with stems. We are extremely careful with the extraction to obtain very fine tanins. To do this, the best tool is to work with native yeasts and to have good control of the temperatures during fermentation. Aged in old barrels, Apollo eggs and Flexcubes. Unfined and gross filtration.
