——————————————————————————–
This wine is 100% of 65 years old ungrafted monastrell vines from the vineyard La Solana. The fermentation is in small underground stone tanks with frequent manual pigegage, under controlled temperatures, this is preceded by a prolonged cold soak before fermentation starts. Malolactic fermentation takes places entirely in barrel, aging at least 22 months in new French oak barrels. Bottled unfiltered. The low yield of the vineyard is the reason why the production of this wine is very limited. Therefore we only commercialized this wine in Europe.
