VINIFICATION
Destalking of the grape and pre-fermentation maceration in stainless steel tanks for 36 hours within set temperature limits.

Fermentation for 25-60 days at temperatures limited to between 12 and 15 ºC with daily batonnage.
AGEING
The wine was transferred to the same 300 litre barriques of new French oak used for fermentation.
The other whites were transferred to 225 litre barriques of new French oak.
The wine was kept in barriques during the ageing process of 4 months.
