Vinification: Harvested by hand at the best moment, the grapes are destemmed, crushed and vinifed in accordance with a process that relies on careful maceration with extraction of colour, tannins and aromas, complemented by permanent pumping during fermentation. This process takes place in vats, at a controlled temperature of between 28 - 30 °C, until reaching the desired Baumé degree. At this stage, grape brandy is added (fortiffication). This is an exceptional wine, from a single harvest, bottled between the second and third year after the harvest.
