WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Clo de Lolol Blanco begins with hand-harvested grapes, which undergo an eight-hour maceration before pressing. The must is clarified and then fermented with native yeasts in barrels over 15 to 20 days. Following fermentation, the wine is aged on fine lees for two to three months, then rests on very fine lees for an additional six months. This extended lees aging contributes to the wine's texture and complexity.
