WINE MAKING PROCESS
Trapiche Pure Malbec 2022 is crafted from 100% Malbec grapes. The winemaking process begins with fermentation using native yeasts in stainless steel tanks, a technique chosen to emphasize the pure expression of the grape. After fermentation, the wine undergoes an 8-month aging period on its lees in concrete tanks. This method aims to develop texture and complexity without the addition of oak, allowing the fruit and terroir to remain the primary focus.
