Emiliana, Signos de Origen La Vinilla Chardonnay Roussanne 2022

The grapes were picked into 12-kg boxes and transported to the cellar for immediate chilling. After that, the bunches were selected on conveyor belts that led to a bladder press for direct pressing. The must was decanted and racked into stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation began, and prior to completion, 100% of the partially fermented must was racked to French oak barrels to continue the process. Following fermentation, a small amount of sulphite was added to the new wine to prevent malolactic fermentation and thereby preserve the wine's freshness and vibrant acidity. The wine remained in the barrels for an additional 5 months with periodic battonage (lees stirring) to promote the transfer of fatty compounds and aromatics from the lees to the wine for greater complexity. Prior to bottling, the wine was fined with adjusted doses of bentonite and cold stabilized to prevent future tartaric precipitations. Aging: 6 months; 62% in French oak barrels, 15% in French oak foudres, and 19% in ovoid tanks and 4% in stainless steel tank. The blend changes each year and this vintage consists of Chardonnay (72%), Viognier (12%), Marsanne (10%) and Roussanne (6%)
