Biodynamic wine - processing, Lagravera, Costers del Segre, DO, Ónra, rouge

The Vinya Núria vineyard is interspersed with boulders left by the Noguera Ribagorçana River, and the soil in the vineyard consists of sand and gypsum.

As for all Lagravera wines, the grape harvest is done manually, leaving less well-developed grapes on the vine. Since Garnacha and Cabernet Sauvignon do not reach the optimal degree of ripeness at the same time, they are harvested and processed separately.

The fermentation of the Garnacha grapes takes place in stainless steel tanks and the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and uncoated concrete tanks. This makes wines more pleasing, rounder and softer.

The wine then matures for a whole year in 500 liter French oak barrels and could therefore be called Crianza.
