ELABORATION

Elaborated with our own production of albariño grapes, which were planted over twenty five years ago, manually harvested in eighteen kilogram capacity crates. After going through the selection table and the desteemer the grapes are cooled in the tubular exchanger, lying from twelve to twenty four hours in the macerators. During this time the juice is in contact with the grape skins, then it is drained and the must is racking cold, removing the thick elements.
Subsequently, we increase the must temperature between 16 and 18 degrees in order to start the must fermentation with a preselected mother vat. Once the fermentation is concluded the wine is devated and it is kept on the fermentation fine lees for two months. During this time we removed it daily ending with a racking. We let the wine decant for a while and then it is filtered before the cold stabilization within isotermic vats. After ten days the wine pass through a microfiltration cartridge and finally it is bottled.
