This wine is obtained from the vinification of Sauvignon grapes in a Vinooxygen tank, which is a method created to avoid racking the wines. Therefore, the wine is never moved until it is bottled. This allows to maintain the original aromas of the wine and its integrity of body and structure thanks to the absence of contact with oxygen. Vinooxygen is a GREEN technology as it minimizes the use of Sulfur (about 40-50 mg), reduces the use of water and detergents by at least 3 times as the washing of the tanks is done only 1 time against the minimum 3 times in the case of standard decanting and filtration.
Notes: Indigenous yeasts are used.
The grapes harvested in crates remain in the refrigerator for 2 days to lower the temperature of the grapes before pressing and maintain their aromas and characteristics.
