WINE MAKING PROCESS
Petit Vega 18 Meses en Barrica is produced from 100% Tempranillo grapes sourced from high-altitude vineyards. The fruit is hand-harvested and 100% de-stemmed before fermentation in a mix of wood, stainless steel, and concrete tanks under controlled temperatures. Malolactic fermentation is carried out to enhance texture. The wine is then aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, followed by additional bottle aging before release. This process is designed to create a structured, fruit-forward wine that reflects its Ribera del Duero origin.
