ELABORATION PROCESS

VETIVER grape harvest is done at night to avoid oxidation of the grapes. Once in the cellar, it is proceeded by cooling the pasta to 10oC, to extract all the aromatic percussors present in the skins of the grape. Maceration in cold lasts only 4 hours prior to the extraction of the yolk. After a static defragmentation, alcoholic fermenta- tion is carried out at a temperature of 14o C with native yeasts selected by the cellar itself. Before leaving the market, the wines of VETIVER Verdejo remain 3 months in contact with the soft lees making a weekly batonage.
