Vineyard and elaboration
The vineyard is located in the area of Valtomelloso. It is a long, low-steep slope (10%) on the hillsides of Monte Yerga at 550 metres above sea level.
The grapes are harvested manually, with a careful selection of grapes.
Vinification is based on partial destemming, crushing and pressing. The grape juice ferments with the fine lees in oval wooden foudres at a low temperature. Pre-maceration takes 8 hours and malolactic fermentation is spontaneous.
Winery
The winery was founded in 1948 and is a true reflection of the area's 2000-year-old winemaking culture. The wild and high environment of Monte Yerga, where the first Cistercian monks arrived, is the family origin of this winery, where they have recovered the traditional viticulture of Garnacha variety.
