Chalk-clay soil.
CLIMATE:
Mediterranean with Atlantic influence.

Juan Jesús, the oenologist, has captured the full terroir potential and the true expression of our land. Harvested during the first week of October. Pre-fermentative maceration at low temperature and spontaneous alcoholic fermentation. Malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels. Aged for 12 months, using French oak barrels (50%) and American oak barrels (50%).
