WINE MAKING PROCESS
This white wine is crafted from a blend of Gros Manseng and Sauvignon Blanc. Following harvest, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine then undergoes a maturation period of six months on its lees, also in stainless steel. This technique aims to build texture and depth while preserving the wine's inherent freshness and aromatic profile before bottling.
