Aging & Cellaring

Drink now with decanting to soften tannins, or cellar through 2030+ for tertiary flavors to emerge and tannins to integrate fully

Winemaking

The harvest is 100% by hand and it is transported to the cellar in crates, where it will receive the greatest oenological care. Once it is in the tank, the maceration will begin to extract all the compounds that were sought with the work in the vineyard. The maceration lasts more than 22 days, at controlled temperatures and is undergoing intense pumping over and delestage. The Gran Tannat undergoes malolactic fermentation and is then left to rest in concrete vats to undergo a natural clarification and stabilization process. This process is long-lasting and very delicate. Then it will be aged in the best oaks barrels in the winery, where it will remain for 18 months. Finally, it goes through a period of aging in the bottle.
