ELABORATION
Made exclusively from grapes grown in specific plots of our estate Fontana Domain of 400 ha, located in Uclés, in the heart of Castilla. We manage our vineyards sustainably high without using insecticides and respecting the biodiversity of the environment and health of the soil. We tailor each variety carefully to different soil conditions and crop on the farm and work independently to get balanced vines, capable of expressing both the character of the variety and the farm. Both varieties are harvested and fermented in stainless steel tanks separately at a controlled temperature of about 24 ° C. Maceration times and extraction schemes are set tasting all deposits. After a complete malolactic fermentation , the wine is aged in American oak for four to six months. The proportions used in the blend vary each year, in order to find the best harmony between varieties
