WINE MAKING PROCESS
Damana Crianza is produced through a process that begins with a manual harvest of 100% Tempranillo grapes. The grapes are destemmed and undergo maceration at controlled temperatures. Both alcoholic and malolactic fermentations take place in stainless steel tanks. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in 225-liter oak barrels, composed of 80% French oak and 20% American oak. This Crianza designation signifies a commitment to aging that develops complexity while retaining freshness.
