WINE MAKING PROCESS
Deseu Treixadura is produced using Treixadura grapes from the Ribeiro DO. The winemaking process typically involves fermentation in stainless steel tanks, which helps to preserve the grape's aromatic qualities. Maturation also takes place in stainless steel, aiming to maintain the wine's freshness and vibrant character. Treixadura is a late-ripening grape, and harvest timing is managed to balance ripeness with acidity. Some producers may utilize lees aging to enhance texture and complexity.
