Vintage
Harvest is carried out when the grapes have achieved the perfect balance of acidity and alcohol. The grapes are hand-picked and placed in small cases of up to 5 kg in order to prevent damage to the fruit prior to pressing. This also helps the grapes to maintain their natural freshness grown at these altitude levels.
Ripening
