the delicate berries are handled gently

tannins.

in open-top vessels, allowing for more
skin contact and extraction of color,
flavor, and tannins.

The wine is aged in oak barrels,
adding complexity and subtle oak
flavors. The duration of aging can vary,

may continue to evolve and develop in
the cellar, gaining more complexity and
tertiary aromas over time.
