For its stabilisation and refinement, it remains for another 5 months in stainless steel tanks.
Winery
The Compañía de Vinos del Atlántico winery was founded in 2002 to continue the family winemaking tradition of Alberto Orte (pioneer in recovering this variety) and Patrick Mata, its founders. Both families have been producing wine independently throughout Spain since the late 1800s.
Today, they produce wine in 18 different designations within the Iberian Peninsula.
Their main aim is to produce handcrafted wines that express the identity of their place of origin.
