WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking for Tres Picos Garnacha 2022 begins with sustainably farmed grapes from low-yielding, old vines. Following harvest, the wine undergoes a temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, maintained between 25-30ºC. A prolonged maceration period of 20-25 days on the skins ensures optimal extraction of color, flavor, and structure. After fermentation, the wine is matured for 5 months in new French oak barriques, which contributes to its complexity and integrates subtle spice notes, preparing it for bottling.
