Microclimate: Low temperatures during the winter combined with cool summer nights, due to high altitude, provide a slow ripening of the grapes. That results in a very good maturation of the grapes, which develop fully their aromas, while retaining their crispness.

Vinification: Grapes are handpicked and chilled to 7-8oC in a cold room overnight. The free – run grape juice is separated in a pneumatic press and processed according to classic white wine vinification. Fermentation at controlled temperatures of 16-17oC. Maturation on the fine lees in the tank at low temperature for three months. Filtered and protein and cold stabilized before bottling.
