Carmenère fruit from different growers in the Rapel Valley, grown on the hillsides, overlooking the rivers Tinguiririca and Cachapoal, cropped at less than 10 tons / ha (4 tons / acre).

Upon arrival at the winery all grapes were destemmed and crushed to stainless steel tanks and inoculated with selected yeasts. Fermentation occurred quickly; temperatures reached 32ºC. The wine was left to macerate for an additional 7 days, for added structure and longevity. Half the resulting wine underwent malolactic in barrels, where it was left to age for an average time of 6 months. The other half was kept in tanks to complete malolactic fermentation. The wine was finally assembled, filtered and bottled. A total of 11,100 cases were produced.
