WINE MAKING PROCESS
Quintaluna Verdejo 2019 is produced by Ossian Vides y Vinos S.L. using 100% Verdejo grapes. The winemaking process typically involves fermentation and aging in oak barrels, a method influenced by a Burgundian philosophy. The vineyards are situated at high altitudes (840-930 meters) in the Segovia province, benefiting from significant diurnal temperature variations that aid in grape maturation and contribute to the wine's quality. The winery adheres to organic viticulture principles, being one of the oldest certified organic vineyards in the Rueda D.O. The sandy soils with high 'codon' content are also noted for contributing minerality and freshness to the wine.
