Suserano Reserva Tinto

Description

With two grape varieties that mature at different times, the Suserano Seleção Tinto blend is created. The wines are fermented separately, starting with Aragonez and then with Alicante Bouschet. The grapes are hand‑picked in the vineyard and undergo an initial selection. They are then transferred to the winery’s chill rooms, where their temperature is stabilized at 10 °C. On the sorting tables a rigorous selection of the best bunches takes place, after which they are destemmed. Once properly crushed, the grapes go directly into the various fermentation tanks, all at controlled temperature. During alcoholic fermentation the temperature is kept between 20 and 22 °C. By avoiding pumps during the pumping stages and using only mechanical presses and delasting, relying on gravity, the skins are not shredded, the grapes are not over‑crushed, and unwanted astringency is avoided. Part of the wine is then aged in French oak barrels. After malolactic fermentation the blend is finalized, bottled, and sent to the cellar where it matures for 8 to 10 months. Contains sulfites.
