WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Herència Altés Celastrina Rosé 2023 is produced using a meticulous winemaking process. Grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed, then chilled for 24 hours to prevent oxidation. Fermentation occurs without oak influence, typically in stainless steel tanks, concrete, or French oak foudres, with the 2023 vintage specifically noted for its absence of oak. The winery's approach is deeply rooted in organic farming and sustainability, employing practices such as solar power and rainwater recycling. This commitment extends to preserving the biodiversity of their vineyards, which often feature old vines.
