WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Pasanau Vi de Vila Poboleda 2018 is produced from grapes sourced from organic vineyards. Vinification involves fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures (24-26°C) with submerged cap maceration for 20-25 days. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging for 12 months in French oak barrels. The wine is bottled unfiltered, and may contain tartaric acid precipitates.
