Vinification of the Spanish Country Wine ES Cuvée

The grapes for the Spanish Country Wine ES Cuvée thrive in the sun-drenched vineyards of Spain, specifically in the Spanish Country Wine (ES) growing region. In this climate, the grapes reach an even ripeness, which is crucial for the quality of the cuvée. Harvesting takes place at the optimal time in order to carefully ensure the balance between sweetness and acidity.

After the harvest, the grapes are gently processed to preserve the aromatic components as much as possible. The cuvée consists of several grape varieties that are vinified separately and then blended harmoniously to achieve the perfect balance of fruitiness and spiciness. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures to preserve the vibrant aromas.

For further refinement, the cuvée is placed in stainless steel tanks, where it is allowed to rest. Maturation takes place gently and without any influence of wood, so that the characteristic fruit notes and the warm world of spices can fully unfold. Thanks to this careful vinification, the Spanish Country Wine ES Cuvée presents itself as an elegant and at the same time accessible wine that combines both complexity and lightness.
