WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes undergo short skin contact to extract delicate color and precursors, followed by traditional fermentation and aging on fine lees to build mid-palate texture. The wine is then gently de-alcoholized using vacuum distillation at a low temperature of 35°C. This precise, low-temperature process ensures that the volatile aromatic compounds, delicate esters, and natural structure of the original wine are carefully preserved.
