WINE MAKING PROCESS
La Rougeante 2022 is produced using hand-picked and destemmed grapes. The winemaking process involves a long maceration period of three to four weeks, followed by aging in oak barrels for 10 months before bottling. This approach aims to maximize the extraction of flavor and structure from the blend of Carignan, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah.
