Vinification: The wine is vinified off the skins and fermentation is completed in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures.

The main difference between a wine created with or without sulfites is the special attention that is paid in the vineyard as well as in the cellars to avoiding grape contamination.  Sulfur is used in winemaking as the main antiseptic, preventing the grapes and wine from suffering the attacks of bacteria which could negatively affect or damage the wine completely.

The wine making process without the use of sulfur means that the hygienic conditions have to been extreme during harvest season. The grapes are harvested solely by hand in small crates.  Every effort is made to avoid breakage and bacteria attacks. The wine deposits are filled very briefly so as not to delay the delicate fermentation process.

All elements that come in contact with this no sulfite added wine are subject to the most extreme hygienically conditions.

Analytical data: 12% alc./ vol.

Ageing: No oak ageing - Best when consumed young.

Tasting Notes: Interesting aromas of honeyed roasted pineapple, currant pie, and roasted green pepper are oddly reminiscent of fine aged tequila and follow through on a round, supple entry to a dryish medium-to-full body with tart, tangy cranberry notes and a crisp, juicy herb and cedar accented fade. A fun, flavorful wine to try with Latin beef dishes. – Tastings.com
