WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for GOSA Organic Monastrell begins with hand-harvested grapes from organically farmed vineyards. Fermentation occurs in tanks, employing an innovative technique where bubbles are introduced to manage the grape cap, promoting even fermentation and fruit concentration. Following fermentation, a portion of the wine undergoes aging in French oak barrels. The overall approach emphasizes organic viticulture and sustainable practices, with minimal intervention to highlight the characteristics of the Monastrell grape and its high-altitude origin.
