Winemaking

Grapes  are hand harvested from a blend of our 6 different plots, of organic vines averaging 25 years old.  Elevation of 2600 to 3000 feet  above sea level, where the plots run down to a couple of hundred meters above the banks of the Duero River.

The selection is both in the field and in the winery.

First cooling the grapes to  5°C  and cold maceration for one week in stainless steel tanks, This results in locking in the fullness of the fruit.
