WINE MAKING PROCESS
Gran Resalte 2010 is produced from 100% Tempranillo grapes sourced from old vines. The winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention, with vinification occurring purely by gravity. The wine is aged for a minimum of 18 months in French (80%) and American (20%) oak barrels, with one-third of the barrels being new each vintage. This approach aims to preserve the integrity of the fruit and express the unique characteristics of the vineyard and vintage.
