Daily pumping overs and racking of pomace to extract the color, flavour and tannins from the skins. Blending and ageing for 18 months in large oak casks (40 hl) or oak vats of 25 hectoliters and barrel of 600 liters. The resulting wine is a full-bodied and richly flavored red wine with notes of dark fruit, spice, and earthy undertones.
