In
the
winery,
our
approach
is
to
respect
the
grapes as much
as possible,
intervening
as little
as possible
in the
winemaking
process,
using
no additives,
apart
from
moderate
doses of sulphur.
Bottling
is
carried
out
late without
fining.
Harvesting
is
staggered,
depending
on
the
grapes’ maturity
in each
vineyard. A selection
of the
clusters
is
carried
out
in the
vineyards
and these
are then
transported
to
the
winery
in 15 kg crates,
preventing
damage
to
the
grapes and the
loss
of juice.
The
grapes from
each
vineyard
are fermented
separately
in order
to
preserve their
individual identity. The
grapes are pressed
whole
and only
the
must
which
will
ferment
in stainless
steel
is
settled,
but
not
the
must
which
will
ferment
in wood. Each
vat
ferments
with
its
own
yeasts,
without
the
use of a starter
culture
which
could
homogenize
the
wines.
The
wood
used
to
ferment
the
single parcel
wines
is
French
oak
previously
used
at least
five
times and with
a capacity
between
400 and 2,200 litres.
The
wines
ferment
in the
barrels
where
they
then
remain
on
their
lees until
the
following
harvest.
We
like to look for new ideas on how to produce from the
past. In red wines we are returning to the traditional grape treading
as a way
of breaking them in a softer way, without damaging the stalk, avoiding
the
greenery and astringency intakes to the wines, and recovering grapes
traditional blends in each plot or the use of wooden chestnut barrels
…
search for wines with enjoyment in mind, wines that
speak about their homeland, their origin, their climate and, why not?,
about
ourselves.
