Our winemaking process for the Quinta Sanradela Tinto follows an age-old tradition that dates back centuries. Each of our grape clusters are harvested by hand into 25kg baskets that make their way through the vineyard and into our production Quinta in less than an hour.
There, the whole clusters are de-stemmed and the grapes transferred to ancient stone lagares for alcoholic fermentation. Traditional foot trodden of the grapes takes place over the next 3 days. The juice is then operated from the skins, with 30% aged in oak for 6 months and the balance in stainless steel.
