Vinification of Granat Negre from Dalt Turó

The grapes for Granat Negre from Dalt Turó grow in select, sun-kissed vineyards with calcareous soils, ideal for the Garnacha vine. The mild Mediterranean climate supports a slow and even ripening process, giving the grapes an optimal balance of sugar and acidity.

Harvesting is done by hand to select only the best and ripest berries. This careful hand harvest minimizes the risk of damage and enhances grape quality.

After delivery to the winery, the grapes undergo a strict selection, followed by gentle destemming. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruitiness and delicate aromas.

During the maceration fermentation, regular punching down (pigeage) ensures optimal extraction of color and tannins. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months in French oak barrels, imparting a harmonious spiciness and a smooth structure. This stage is also when the complex aromatics of Granat Negre develop.
