VINIFICATION AND REFINING — The grapes are harvested by hand using boxes, steeped in a cold horizontal press for eight hours and the must is cleaned through settling. The fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18°C. When the fermentation is over, the product thus obtained is not poured off and therefore remains in the same containers to mature for about five months at a constant temperature. At the end of this period, the wine is assembled and bottled. There follows a further long period of refining in the bottle before the wine is distributed.

ORGANOLEPTIC CHARACTERISTICS — It has a straw yellow color, with golden and greenish reflections. Its bouquet, intense and characteristic, recalls exotic fruit, melon and yellow peppers. A wide range of aromas are very well balanced. On the palate it is dry, with a good structure, generous.
