Labor Practices: Everyone at the winery comes together to work as a team during harvest and winemaking. Agronomist Ricardo Garcia lays out a detailed technical map of each part of the farm to reflect all soil, yield and rootstock characteristics of the individual grape varieties. With this study and by closely monitoring the ripening process they are able to create different selected harvest components, such as the 12 different wines thorough 5 harvest days over a two weeks period to reflect 6 different soil characteristics (clay, lime, sand, calcarious) with diverse yield outcome for their Sauvignon Blanc. In total for the 2022 harvest they made wines from 67 different components from February 9th to April 15th. All their wines completed the entire spontaneous fermentation period during this time and resulted in an outstanding vintage.
