Picking is done by hand, and the grapes are brought  to the winery in 25kg capacity plastic boxes. From  these grapes, in pneumatic presses we obtain the   grape juice. The juice is left to rest for 24 hours in a static decantation to drop its sediment. Once  it is clean,  it is transferred to the fermentation tanks,  keeping  each  variety separate from the others. The first fermentation  is  done  in  stainless  steel  tanks, at controlled temperatures between 14 and 16°C.  Intothese tanks we introduce  the fermentation yeasts, which come exclusively from our own Freixenet cultures, and the first fermentation  begins. This  fermentation  lasts between 10 and 12 days, and once it is complete the wine is racked and clarified and blend  is  prepared  ready  for  bottling, and the secondary fermentation in bottle.
