WINE MAKING PROCESS
The wine is a blend of Treixadura, Godello, and Albariño. The Treixadura and Albariño components are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve fresh primary fruit. The Godello component is fermented in 500-liter French oak barrels and aged on its fine lees with regular battonage to add texture, structure, and complexity before final blending.
