A
little background to our red wines
The
grapes are handpicked in small baskets and brought to the
Bodega as quickly as possible. After careful hand-selection,
fermentation takes place in open topped fermentation tanks and
involves regular punching down of the cake or cap. The wine is
transferred from the fermentation tanks directly to small
French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation (we do not use
oak chips or staves). The wines remain in
barrels (20 - 40 % new) with gentle, carefully timed rackings
for approx. 14 - 20 months - depending on the vintage &
type of wine. The natural development of the wine is allowed
with the minimum of
handling, which includes a soft fining with
fresh, free range egg whites and one single

WINE.
