Description of Limousin Verdejo

Wine made with careful selection of Verdejo from old vines over 40 years pruned in glass. This grape of great adaptability and good acidity, allows optimal fermentation and aging on lees in French oak barrels. The manual harvest is done in boxes of 15 kg. capacity for the subsequent pressing of the whole grape, without destemming. In this way the oxidation of the must is limited to the maximum and all the aromas, color and freshness typical of this variety are preserved. After a slight clarification of the must, the fermentation is carried out in 600 liters French oak barrels of 3 origins: Allier, Nevers and Vosges, followed by an aging on lees that can last about 6 months.
