Vinification of the Rhodes Tinto from Mas Llunes The grapes for the Rhodes Tinto from Mas Llunes come from carefully tended vines growing on barren soils with a calcareous subsoil. The altitude of the vineyards ensures cool nights and optimal ripening. The harvest is done by hand to select only perfect grapes and to avoid damage. After harvesting, the berries are gently destemmed and cold macerated to extract color and aromatic compounds. Fermentation takes place in a controlled manner at moderate temperature in stainless steel tanks, preserving freshness and fruitiness. Afterwards, the wine matures for 12 months in French and American oak barrels. This imparts a subtle spiciness and fine wood aromas without dominating the fruit.
