ELABORATION
Manual harvest in 200Kg cases. Before entering the winery, the grapes are cooled at 4ºC for about 24 hours, followed by a selection of the best grapes. Vatted in concrete tanks with 50% whole bunches where alcoholic fermentation (spontaneously with
indigenous yeasts) and malolactic fermentation will take place, processes that we accompany with gentle daily pigeages. The wine is then pressed and transferred to a 5000 L Austrian oak foudre to age for 14 months.
Very smooth stabilization and filtering.

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.
