Production process: As the tradition from Maderat says, the grapes were harvested after the first frost, on October 16, and left in crates to dry for a month. During this period, the grapes continued to ripen. After the drying period, the must was soaked in pomace for 72 hours and then fermented in stainless steel tanks. Maturation was done in a 1000 liter oak barrel for 12 months.
