The grapes are cultivated from vineyards located in Caucete, at 650 meters (2,133 feet) above sea level, in alluvial, sandy-textured soil. The vines are drip irrigated with snowmelt runoff from the Andes, providing the optimum amount of water to each plant. Vines are trained on trellis.
The grapes are hand-harvested and clusters are manually selected before de-stemming. Pre-fermentative maceration is performed at 12?C for 72 hours. Fermentation takes place at 24?C for 10 days. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks for 5 months.
