WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Navarro Correas Reserve Malbec is produced from 100% Malbec grapes grown at high altitudes in Mendoza. Following harvest, the grapes undergo fermentation, likely in stainless steel tanks, to maintain fruit purity. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, a process that contributes to its structure and complexity. This approach blends traditional winemaking techniques with a focus on expressing the unique characteristics of the Mendoza terroir.
