Once harvested, they are transported to the cellar in small boxes, starting the ancestral process of treading on foot in traditional granite presses, which, due to their shape, allow perfect contact between the must and the skins, allowing further extraction. Fermentation is interrupted by the addition of wine spirit, followed by an aging in oak vats for a period of 2 years.
