WINEMAKING
The traditional wine-making process starts with a careful selection of the grapes, which are naturally dried on reed racks from the moment of their harvest to late December. The grapes are then pressed to make must, which is put into oak casks of no more than 5 hl, where the wine will remain for at least 3 years.
