WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process at Celler Hidalgo Albert begins with grapes that are skidded and flattened without being struck, utilizing gravity for processing. Fermentation typically takes place in stainless steel tanks. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging in oak barrels, with 20% of the barrels renewed annually. The '1270 a vuit' wines are designed to rest and evolve in the bottle for a minimum of 18 months post-barrel aging. The winery's vineyards are managed using organic and traditional methods, with all field work conducted by hand.
