ELABORATION
Manual harvest in 225 kg crates. Before entering the winery, the grapes are cooled to 4 ºC for 24 hours, followed by a selection of the best bunches. Fermentation takes place in concrete tanks with 15% whole clusters, occurring spontaneously with wild yeasts and accompanied by gentle daily pigeage. Afterwards, only the free-run juice is used and it is transferred to a 52 HL Austrian oak foudre, another of 25 HL, and two 500 L Austrian oak barrels, where it undergoes malolactic fermentation and then ages for 12 months. Very gentle stabilization and filtration.
VARIETIES: Garnatxa Peluda 100%
D.O. Terra Alta
At Herència Altés we are yesterday's footprint in our gaze towards tomorrow.
We are land, landscape, culture, history and innovation.
The vineyard, cultivated in an ecological way and the wine in its maximum expression, are protectors of our landscape and guardians of our biodiversity. In the winery, we have an environmental project, which protects the flora and fauna indigenous of our environment.
At home, we follow a philosophy of minimal intervention, we respect the wines to maintain the essence of the fruit and thus achieve a perfect harmony between the hand of man and what the earth gives us.
Our aging room is totally underground, to have the perfect temperature and humidity throughout the year in a sustainable way. We work with large oak foudres, of 5000 and 2500 liters, with the philosophy of making long aging, but with the minimum impact of the wood.
Fresh, serene, polished and friendly wines.
