Palomino

100% Palomino from old, organically farmed ungrafted vines at the La Casa Vieja estate. These old own-rooted vines are particularly suited to the arid conditions in the area, and yields are low. The Palomino is harvested by hand in mid-September, then destemmed manually with a Zaranda. The destemmed grapes are foot-trodden and moved to neutral plastic and a 450-liter concrete for fermentation and two weeks of maceration on the skins. The wine rests in the same vessels and is bottled without fining, filtering or added SO2.
