Ageing/Vinification: Soft destemming in steel tanks where fermentation takes place with controlled temperature never higher than 28 degrees. Then the wine is drawn off leaving only the fine lees with which it starts aging in second-passage American oak barrels and second-passage French oak tonneau in which the malolactic fermentation takes place. Here they stay for the next 6 \ 12 months, at the end of which period the mass is prepared and placed in steel until bottling.
