The vines yield 10 tons per hectare, and they are grown in espaliers, using drip irrigation. At Doña Paula, our vineyards have always been managed using sustainable agricultural practices.
Vinification
The grapes are hand-picked in the morning during the first week of March. A very careful, protective destemming and pressing process is carried out. Then a peculiar maceration is performed to transfer the varietal character from the skin to the must. Fermentation takes place ay low temperatures, between 12 and 15°C (53.6 – 59°F), is stainless steel tanks, to preserve the primary aromas.
