Vinification:
Grapes are harvested when phenolic ripeness, soft fruit tannins and fruit
aromas have reached the perfect balance. Modern winemaking
techniques are applied to maximize freshness and bring out the fruity
aromas that are typical to the varietal. Oak is used moderately to get
more complexity and allows the fruit to shine.
