WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Proemio Malbec undergoes fermentation and maceration in small concrete vats using indigenous yeasts, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine is intentionally unfined and unfiltered to preserve its natural character. Aging takes place in the bottle rather than through oak, allowing for the development of complexity and softness. Grapes are harvested manually. The winery emphasizes sustainable and organic farming practices.
