Winemaking Selection of grapes in the vineyard. Once harvested we destem and crush lightly. Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts from the vineyard in 3 open casks of 225 L in the garage of the Mas and one Qveri. Fermentation begins on 01/09 and ends on 18/09, the day we devat without pressing. During fermentation we do a little pigeage (punching down) to wet the cap without extracting too much tannin. We do not control the fermentation temperature, temperature does not exceed27 ºC. After racking, we filled two casks and the Qveri. Malolactic fermentation takes place naturally. It ages during the winter months where the wine is stabilized. We do not use any oenological additives at any time in the process.
Aging 9 months in QVeri and Oak French Barrel.

About Vins Pepe Raventos
Producer Story
The wines of Pepe Raventós are the fruit of his passion for viticulture and the selection of native grape varieties in unique and different soils that give these wines the breadth and complexity we seek.
The objective is to produce authentic, well-balanced wines, allowing the terroir to fully express its intrinsic nature.
The vineyard is cared according to the biodynamic and organic principles, respecting the soil and its ecosystem, in order to maintain a balanced environment.
Once the grapes have matured, the wine can be allowed to develop with minimal intervention in the cellar. Yeast, sugar, chemicals and temperature control are not used in the winemaking, making the process as natural as possible.
