From three north-facing parcels of 100+ year old vines in the La Corujera area, ranging from 350-650m above sea level. The vines are planted on sand and clay soils over red basalt bedrock.
The three parcels were harvested and fermented separately. ½ of grapes from the lowest parcel went through carbonic maceration in open-top fermenters, while ½ were destemmed then macerated and fermented in open-top fermenters for 14 days. Grapes from the other two parcels were partially (25%) destemmed, then fermented in concrete tanks without temperature control for 18 days. The wines were blended and rested for 8 months on their lees in 228L neutral French oak barrels, where malolactic fermentation completed naturally. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, with a small addition of sulfur. VEGAN
