Convento Da Vila Red Wine

The harvest period occurs in the beginning of September. The grapes are destemmed and crushed. The alcoholic fermentation then takes place at a controlled temperature of 25ºC. During this period the maceration occurs for 7 days by using the pumping method so as to optimize the extraction of color, aromas and flavors. The next phase is the malolactic fermentation which is a very important step that allows the wine to become softer and smoother. After the period during which the wine stabilizes by using physical processes in stainless vats, the wine is filtered before being bottled in the following spring.
