Vinification and Elevage - The grapes were harvested in the early morning - half of the bins were foot crushed to macerate on skins overnight while the other half rested as whole bunches. Early the next morning the grapes were pressed lightly together in the bladder press and the juice was sent to tank to settle overnight. This Albariño fermented partially in stainless and partially in neutral French oak barrels. It spent elevage in neutral French oak until combining the barrels a month before bottling in a stainless tank. This wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered in March of 2022.
