Vinification of the Caliterra Tributo Carmenère Colchagua Valley

The basis for the balanced Tributo Carmenère Colchagua Valley from Valle Central are grapes from the Carmenère grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in the Valle Central. The vines here dig their roots deep into soils of clay. After the grape harvest, the grapes reach the press house by the fastest route. Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. Then fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks and small wood at controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by a maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally drawn off.
