WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Altozano Tempranillo Syrah is produced by Finca Constancia, a winery that employs precision viticulture across its 230-hectare estate, divided into 82 parcels. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures. Following fermentation, a portion of the wine is aged in used French and American oak barrels, a process that contributes to its structure and flavor profile. The winery's approach integrates modern technology with a deep respect for the vineyard, with vineyard work sometimes guided by lunar cycles and planetary positions.
