Production
Cluster selection occurs pre-destemmer; berry selection post-destemmer, grapes are then gravity fed. for 25-30 days total maceration:- 5-7 days cold soak; 10 days fermentation in small wide stainless steel tanks. 78�F for most aromatic parcels and 86�F for parcels with more concentration to derive more texture; 15-18 days extended maceration. Finally gently basket pressed before 90% goes into French oak barrels (30% new) for MLF and 14 months maturation. 10% remains in tank to preserve the delicate violet aromatics.
Winery
Finca Decero, once a bare patch of soil in the Argentine foothills of the Andes, is now our one of a kind vineyard, where each vine is nurtured by hand and our winemaking is without compromise. As Decero means "from scratch", we are fortunate to be free from constraints of tradition, and we have developed an ���amano�۪or ���by hand�۪ approach that is human, sustainable and sensitive to natural differences. We try to tread lightly in an environment that we have come to know intimately, almost inch by inch. Only in this way can the unique natural attributes of the Remolinos Vineyard, and of Agrelo, shine through in our single vineyard wines, handcrafted from scratch.
