Additional information
Preparation
After the harvest, the ripe red grapes are washed and crushed. The resulting mash is fermented with special wine yeast.

For the filtration siliceous earth is used, bentonite is used for the clarification process. The maximum shelf life of the wine is 3 years due to the consciously low degree of sulfurization.
