Las Orcas Tinto de Laguardia

We make this wine with a small percentage from each Tempranillo vineyard in Laguardia. Each vineyard's grapes go into our fermentation tanks, where they are kept at 8 degrees for 3 days with light pump-overs. After this period, we open the cooling jackets, and alcoholic fermentation takes place over 7/8 days until it finishes. We blend a small portion of the free-run wine from each vineyard for malolactic fermentation in a separate stainless steel tank. Afterwards, we transfer it to French oak barrels for 12 months. After these months, we bottle it and let it rest for a period in the bottle.
