In vineyard
We select the vineyards with the best exposure to sun to ensure a perfect ripening of the fruit. The grapes of merlot are left in the plant for slight over-ripening that confers to the wine a decisive aromatic charge and an enveloping structure.
In cellar
The grapes are vinified at a temperature of 25°C to enhance the intensity of the color, while maceration continues for over 18 days. It follows alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks and a passage in large barrel, where the malolactic fermentation takes place and gives pleasant aromas and noble tannins of wood.
