Vinification
The vines are between 12 and 30 years old and grow primarily in clay soil around Avia, Arnoia and Miño. The grapes were hand-harvested between 19 September and 8 October. At harvest, the grapes were sorted and destemmed before pressing. Fermentation was carried out separately according to vineyard site and altitude. Only naturally occurring yeast was used for fermentation, which took place in foudres, older barriques, concrete eggs and stainless steel tanks. No malolactic fermentation, and maturation was carried out partly in barriques, foudres and concrete eggs, and partly in stainless steel tanks on the lees.
