WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Corcovo Verdejo begins with grapes harvested at night to preserve freshness. A cold maceration period of 24-30 hours is followed by low-temperature fermentation in stainless steel tanks, potentially using indigenous yeasts. The wine is then aged for 3 months in the bottle before release.
