WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Casal Garcia Vinho Verde begins with the careful selection of grapes from prime vineyards in the Vinho Verde Region. The grapes are pressed at low temperatures, and the resulting must is clarified before undergoing fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures between 16°C and 18°C. This controlled fermentation is key to preserving the wine's fresh aromatic profile. Post-fermentation, the wine undergoes cold stabilization and filtration before being bottled to ensure its clarity and vibrant character.
