about the harvest: Date of Harvest: February 2007
Type of Harvest: All the grapes are already selected and sorted in the vineyards, leaving all the rotten and sun-burnt berries on the vines.

in the cellar : At the cellar the grapes go through another selection process before destemming. No crushing of the berries takes place and fermentation starts naturally after 3-4 days of cold-soaking at 15ºC. The grapes are left on the skins for 25-35 days to create velvety smooth tannins. The wine is lightly pressed and then matured in first fill, second fill and third fill French oak barrels for 15 months.
