Vintage

The 2023 vintage is, like the one we had in 2022, a fairly dry vintage where until the end of August rain had been quite scarce.These extreme drought conditions were also accompanied by a frost in mid-May that affected our youngest vineyards that already had greater vegetative development at that time.Most of the selection work was carried out in the vineyard, ensuring that the grapes arrived at the winery in optimal conditions.

Winemaking

We initially select the grape at the vineyard before picking them by hand in 12-kilogram boxes. After passing through the selection table, grape bunches are destemmed at low speeds before entering the tanks by natural gravity. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of between 20 and 24oC for 9 to 12 days. Once fermentation is complete, the wine is macerated with the paste for a further 7 to 10 days.
