GRAPE VARIETIES
Tempranillo and Garnacha.
WINEMAKING PROCESS
After selection, the grapes are destemmed and lightly crushed. Once the alcoholic fermentation has concluded, a secondary malolactic fermentation process takes place to lower the acidity of the wine. The wine is then transferred to medium-toast American oak barrels where it remains for 12 months, with racking taking place every 6 months.
