Vinifikation in den eigenen Worten des Winzers

Böden:

Clay, Granite

Terroir:

VI LOF is elaborated with the selected grapes from two of the family plots. The plot of “Los Cobos” in the spot of “El Foco”. The clayey soil and the south orientation make a structured wine with red fruit flavours due to the easy maturation. The 70% come from this plot while the other 30% come from other spots in Valtuille. Clay and boulder predominate in the area with different orientation and higher position so freshness and balanced acidity are detected from the wine from this plot.

Ernte:

Picked by hand

Fermentation:

Steel (100%)

Lagerung:

Old oak (100%) 12 months

The grapes from each one of the plots are elaborated separately in stainless steel tanks with spontaneous fermentation with natural yeast from Mencía. During the elaboration there is a definition of the contain of whole clusters for each plot. Once the fermentation is finished, it is aged separately in French oak barrels for 12 months, never new barrels to avoid an over woody flavour. During the ageing time some decantation is done in order to aerate the wine and natural clean it. There is no other filtering process done before the bottling so we try to enhance the structure and complexity. After 12 months of ageing the coupage is done from the selection of the barrels. The bottling is done in January and bottles are kept in rest without movements for some months, so the characteristics are integrated before going on sale.
