Vineyard: the grapes come from selected vineyards in Val do Salnés, both from own vineyards and those of independent winegrowers, in all of them, the viticulture is respectful of the environmental conditions and the cultivation of the vines according to the Rías Baixas DO appellation.
Harvest: in the first two weeks of September
Vinification: The grapes are hand-picked in small crates with the utmost care. The must is macerated using the Ganimede method for 8-10 hours, which allows for optimal extraction of aromas and preservation of the salty character of the grapes, avoiding the use of sulfur derivatives. Fermentation takes place with the help of local yeasts in order to preserve the aromas so characteristic of the region. The wine is then transferred to stainless steel tanks, where it ages on fine lees for 6 months, during which time batonnage is regularly performed (lifting the fine lees to increase their contact surface and keep them in constant contact with the entire volume of the wine).
