Harvest
The year 2013 was challenging, from a viticulture standpoint, but also rewarding in enological terms, giving rise to wines of great quality and longevity.
Vinification
Harvesting was done in the third week of September. Grapes were manually harvested into small 25 kg boxes, following a strict selection of the best grapes in the vineyard. They were completely destemmed, and then subjected to the traditional process of foot treading, with controlled temperature. After racking, the wine matured for 16 months in French oak barrels. To be bottled in
