Organic wine - processing, Dominio de Verderrubi Pita, Rueda DO, Tempranillo, Finca La Bonera

The Tempranillo grapes come from the first small vineyard called "Finca La Bonera" that the Pita family owned and laid the foundation for a modern winery "Dominio de Verderrubi", which today cultivates almost 60 hectares organically. Here the harvest is always small, in 2022 it was only enough for 3,000 bottles of very, very good red wine. Of course, the grapes were harvested by hand and immediately afterwards the actual winemaking started by removing the panicles and stems from the grapes and gently squeezing them in a grape mill. After a few days in the mash, the spontaneous fermentation started with the grapes' own yeast. The winemaking process ended with the 12-month aging of the wine in French barriques.
