WINE MAKING PROCESS
Viña Zorzal Tempranillo is produced from 100% Tempranillo grapes grown in Navarra, Spain. The grapes are hand-picked from vineyards managed with organic and Lutte Raisonnée practices, with low yields. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks using native yeasts, employing gentle extraction methods to preserve fruit character. The wine is bottled directly after fermentation, with no significant oak aging, to maintain its freshness and focus on varietal expression. This approach reflects the winery's philosophy of emphasizing the purity of the fruit and the distinctiveness of the region.
