VINIFICATION

The healthiest grapes are manually harvested into boxes and are then dried on reed mats in dehumidified rooms with abundant natural ventilation until the following February. The natural dehydration process increases the sugar content of the grapes, which develop 16% alcohol content and a residual sugar content of approximately 90 gl. After the dried grapes are pressed, the wine is fermented in the tradtional manner.
