WINE MAKING PROCESS
Son Mayol Premier Vin 2018 is produced using a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. Fermentation is conducted with temperature control, often in wooden tanks or foudres. The wine is subsequently aged in French oak barrels for 12 to 18 months, with some aging potentially occurring in stainless steel tanks. The winery utilizes gravity-fed systems to minimize mechanical intervention throughout the winemaking process.
