The wine Courelas da Torre comes from the vineyards of Redondo, whose sandy soil gives it the charming abundance and elegance. It is farmed completely free from herbicides and pesticides and the grapes are harvested manually to ensure their outstanding quality.

After the grapes have been put into cases holding 25 kg and brought to the estate for further processing, the berries are separated from the panicles, followed by crushing the berries, the alcoholic fermentation with natural yeasts in stainless steel tanks, then a slow pressing and separating the the wine from the skins and kernels.
