Variety

The wine is made exclusively from the Grenache grape variety, known for its versatility and ability to produce wines with vibrant fruit flavors and balanced structure.

Production

The Grenache grapes are carefully harvested by hand to ensure optimal ripeness. The winemaking process includes controlled fermentation at moderate temperatures to preserve the grape’s aromatic profile. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks to maintain freshness and highlight the varietal character.
