HARVEST – VINIFICATION: |
Lagorthi is a variety with particular character that matures at an alcoholic degree 11 % and has a smooth acidity with high levels of malic acid. The grapes are harvested during the first ten days of September. They remain in the fridge for 24h and then they are de-stemmed and stay in the cold tank for 18 hours (contact of the skins with the must before fermentation). Afterwards, we follow all the essential principles of modern white vinification, while its storage “sur lies” (onto lees) is a procedure that intensifies its features. |
