Coming from one of the best areas between Labastida and Briñas called “The Bear Canyon”. This is a coupage of Viura, Malvasía and Moscatel of a vineyard planted in 1920, Which has no other objective than to honor our mother; Visi Granma.
Harvested by hand and collected in 14kg plastic-crates, 24 hours of Pre-Maceration, after this process we destemmed the grapes and press them.
Fermented in 750L. foudre at very low temperature and aged for 10 months in same foudre, five of them on their own lees. Looking for the structure and complexity of the plot.
