Organic wine production Pago Finca Élez, Flor de Sabina, Chardonnay

The Flor de Sabina wine comes from vineyards at more than 1,000 m altitude with an extreme continental climate with very hot summers and large temperature differences between day and night, as well as very cold winters . The soils are barren, stony with sedimentary rocks made of limestone and clay. These conditions favor organic viticulture, which has been practiced at Pago Finca Élez since 2011.

The grapes are harvested manually, the harvest quantity is less than 7,000 kg/hectare.

The actual winemaking begins with a 12-hour cold maceration of the grapes at 12-16° and the subsequent alcoholic fermentation at a temperature of 15 to 17° C. The The wine ages on the lees for 4 months.

The climatic conditions for the 2021 vintage will be remembered for a long time with heavy snowfall and extreme cold in winter. Even in the spring, temperatures remained slightly cooler than usual, although precipitation remained at usual levels throughout the cycle. Since there were no major heat waves towards the end of the summer, the harvest produced good quality grapes
