WINE MAKING PROCESS
Emma Mas de Monné is produced using organic and biodynamic farming methods. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts in stainless steel and cement tanks or amphorae. After fermentation, the wine is aged for five months in concrete tanks. The winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention, with no added sulfites, and the wine is typically unfined and unfiltered.
