WINE MAKING PROCESS
The GT red wine is produced using 100% hand-harvested Garrut grapes. The winemaking process involves 100% de-stemming followed by a short, 3-day maceration with regular punch-downs. Fermentation occurs naturally with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks. The wine is intentionally not fined or filtered, and no sulfites are added. Aging for the red wine involves a period in stainless steel tanks on fine lees, followed by time in oak barrels to develop complexity and structure.
