The harvest: This harvest has marked a milestone and is characterized by being the earliest in the history of Navarra because from the beginning it has been a week ahead of an average campaign in the region. The absence of rainfall has marked this harvest, which has been carried out in good conditions to collect grapes in perfect condition. Above all, the quality of the grapes that have arrived at our winery stands out because we have had magnificent weather.
Vinification: Following a manual selection, the grapes are de-stemmed, crushed and cold macerated for four days at 8º C before undergoing fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel deposits and/or in French oak vats (30% of the blend fermented in oak, 70% in stainless steel deposits).
The ageing Aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels.
