Withering On racks for about two months. Vinification Filling of the maceration tanks by gravity. Fermentation and maceration take place at a low temperature. Aging Matures in large oak barrels for at least one year; it ages for a long time in the bottle. Tasting Intense ruby red color tending to garnet.
