WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Sangre de Toro Organic Selection is produced from organically grown Garnacha Tinta, Syrah, and Merlot grapes. Following harvest, the grapes undergo a two-week maceration period. A portion of the wine, specifically 35% of the grape must, is aged for four months in French oak barrels, some of which are small. This process aims to develop a balanced profile with subtle oak influence and integrated spiciness.
