The grapes are making wine using only wild yeasts and following the traditional method at controlled temperature, with maceration on the skins takes place in about the 18th day. The wine is then aged in large casks for the first 12 months, followed by 36 months in oak barrels, smaller with a further 12 months’ bottle aging in temperature controlled cellars.
