Vinification is carried out without intervention, following ancient traditional techniques combined with modern expertise. Fermentation takes place in clay amphorae and concrete vats, while slow fermentation is accompanied by controlled extraction. Aged for 6 months in amphorae and large old barrels. Bottled unfiltered. No added sulfites.
