WINE MAKING PROCESS
For the 2024 vintage, the Tempranillo grapes were hand-harvested at optimal ripeness. Fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the vibrant primary fruit characteristics. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation to soften its profile, resulting in a fresh, fruit-forward expression of Ronda's high-altitude terroir with minimal oak influence to highlight the purity of the grape.
