WINE MAKING PROCESS
Divus Bodegas Bleda 2021 is made from 100% Monastrell grapes sourced from old vines over 60 years old, grown at altitudes exceeding 700 meters. The grapes are harvested in the latter half of October. Following harvest, the wine undergoes a long maceration with the skins. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperatures. The wine is then aged for nine to eleven months in new French oak barrels.
