Vinification and aging

Optimus 2019 is crafted using traditional winemaking methods, blending modern techniques with time-honored expertise. The grapes are carefully hand-selected, then destemmed and crushed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, allowing for gentle tannin extraction and preserving aromas. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels, which imparts complexity and roundness. This carefully controlled aging process allows the wine's nuances to develop while respecting its unique character. The final blend is meticulously crafted, resulting in a harmonious and balanced wine.
