Vinification
Grapes are harvested by hand and quality-selected on a sorting table, then de-stemmed but not pressed. Maceration lasts 2-10 days in open concrete vats, without using starters or sulfites. Racking is always done by hand to protect the skin. The must continues its journey in small concrete tanks until bottling. Wines are not filtered, but clarified by means of natural gravity-settling, and the cold winter temperatures in the cellar help stabilize the wine. No additives of any kind areused at any point in the production process. Suitable for vegans.
