                    Production Notes
Vine Training & Soil: Traditional bush-trained vines flourish in rich clay soil, enhancing structure and depth.
Harvest: Grapes are carefully hand-harvested in early October to ensure optimal ripeness and balance.
Vinification: Gentle soft pressing preserves aromas, followed by five days of maceration on the skins for color and complexity.
Aging Process: The wine matures for two years in stainless steel tanks, allowing flavors to develop while maintaining freshness. One additional year of bottle aging
