The Sierra Cantabria Estate wines are their nod to the traditions of the region and all hail from the vineyards of Sonsierra de San Vicente. This zone is very well protected from the North and has a sloping landscape from Sierra Cantabria to the Ebro river, with very good South and South-West sun exposure, providing an accentuated and unique identity. With an average yield of 35hl/ha, the grapes are grown using a number of biodynamoc practices and are then hand harvested in small boxes when perfectly healthy and ripe
Vinification: Traditional winemaking, with the grapes 100% destemmed. Fermented with indigenous yeast selected from their own vineyards. Maceration of 21 days with reduced frequency of pump-overs to avoid the extraction of bitter characters. Aged for 12.5 months in 225-litre barrels of which 15% is new French oak, and the remaining 85% in one year old barrels.
