Cultivation

The grapes that give place to this wine come from vineyards where the way of working is simple, respectful and sustainable. Croplands play an active role as they are very active with good biological conditions which make easy the fast uptake of organic matter which has been folded back allowing to obtain the maximum expression of such terrains.

Making

Ladera Los Cantos is the result of a careful work in order to obtain a high expression product, taking care of the manual selection of the bunch when it enters the winery and carrying out a long and particular making. The making comprises stages of a cold pre-fermentation maceration, a long alcoholic fermentation under controlled temperature and post-fermentation maceration with its husks. After this stage the wine undergoes a malolactic fermentation in a 100% first use French oak barrel and ages in it for 18 months.
