This wine comes from old vineyards planted on old terraces and protected by the Sierra de Bernia, in the Marina Alta. With a location close to the sea and a unique Mediterranean climate, the strains are grown following ecological practices, without the use of chemicals. The harvest is carried out manually at the optimal moment of ripeness.
In the winery, the selected grapes are vinified with minimal intervention, beginning with a spontaneous fermentation thanks to native yeasts. Subsequently, the wine ages for 12 months in 500-liter French oak barrels, which gives it complexity and structure. The result is a wine that transmits the authenticity of its land and Pepe Mendoza's commitment to respecting the vineyard.
