PRODUCTION PROCESS

The Listán Negro contributes the Atlantic character, fresh and alive, while the Syrah, cultivated right at the “El Grifo” bodega contributes the necessary structure for barrel aging. Each variety has a different vintage, and thus, they are fermented separately. During the month of September we carry out the Coupage of both wines and it is put into 500l. French oak barrels. There, the malolactic fermentation and vintage begin (between 3 and 6 months depending on the needs of each vintage year). We aim to provide it with a greater complexity and balance between the fruit and wood. Production finishes with a vintage period in the bottle, making it a rounded and creamy wine.
