The grapes are de-stemmed and then goes to a paste exchanger to get a homogeneous temperature of about 12º. Then grapes goes to the macerator-press. Cold maceration takes place for 6-8 hours, and finally grapes are squeezed in the pneumatic press (3 press levels); then the must goes into a decanting tank for one day, after which the clean part is separated for fermentation (18ºC) and the sludge is filtered with the vacuum filter. Following fermentation, the wine is racked to separate it from the lees. Next process is cold stabilization, which entails subjecting the wine to a temperature of -5°C in an isothermal tank for one week to precipitate bitartrates. After that week, the wine is removed from the cold with a tangential filtering and then filtered amicrobically followed by bottling.
