WINE MAKING PROCESS
Vilarnau Brut Nature Organic is produced using the traditional method, which involves a primary fermentation followed by a second fermentation in the bottle. This secondary fermentation is responsible for creating the wine's effervescence. Following this, the wine undergoes aging on its lees for a minimum of 12 months. This process contributes to the wine's texture and complexity. The grapes are organically grown, reflecting the winery's commitment to sustainable practices.
