Winemaking:
The grapes were handpicked, and fermentation took place in special stainless steel tanks for red wine fermentation and maceration, state-of-the-art tanks equipped with automatic liquid recirculation pumps, as well as in rotary tanks (ROTO type), where more intense maceration occurs. The "cold maceration" method was applied for 5-8 days, after which fermentation took place at a temperature of 24-25°C for 8-10 days. Subsequently, the wine was aged in French oak barriques for 16 months.
