Lagravera, Costers del Segre DO, Cíclic, white, biodynmaic wine processing

Life is made up of cycles, and so is wine. They make us improve, grow, and develop ourselves and what we do. And so this wine "Cíclic" pays homage to all who appreciate it. It is a white wine made from the best Grenache blanc grapes from the Vinya Núria vineyard. It matures for years in the bottle, in which it can further develop and accentuate its complex variety of fresh and mineral nuances.

The harvest is carried out by hand at dawn when the temperature is still cooler. Immediately afterwards the grapes are brought to the winery in small boxes thus avoiding damaging them and to preserve its fresh aromas. Another step to achieve this goal is to cool the grapes to 6 ° C and only then squeezed and pressing them.

The fermentation of the mash begins spontaneously with the yeasts naturally present on the grapes. The wine then matures in barriques for nine months, which gives it a pronounced complexity.
