Good persistence on the aftertaste.

At the end of the drying process the grapes are destemmed and pressed and the must is put into oak barrels. The barrels are then corked and sealed. Inside the sealed barrels takes place the fermentation and maturation for a minimum of 4 years. A further aging in the bottle is made for a minimum of 6 months.
