Vinification
Shortly after harvest, the grapes were destemmed, cold-macerated and pressed softly in the cellar, avoiding contact with oxygen during all pre-fermentation operations. Fermentation took place at 16°C in stainless-steel tanks in order to retain freshness. Once alcoholic fermentation had finished, the wine remained on its lees for one month to enhance the wine's texture.
