WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness and undergo temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the vibrant fruit character. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels (typically a mix of French and American oak) to soften the robust tannins of Cabernet Sauvignon and impart subtle spice and structure before bottling.
