WINE MAKING PROCESS
The MVD 2020 is produced using traditional red winemaking techniques, with a focus on managing extraction from the Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah grapes. Grapes are sourced from organically grown vines. Fermentation is conducted in temperature-controlled vessels to optimize color and tannin development. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging, likely involving a combination of stainless steel tanks and oak barrels, to refine its structure and complexity. The harvest is timed to achieve optimal ripeness for the blend.
