They were then de-stemmed and crushed, and the grape-mass was transported to red vinification tanks for the pigments and tannins to be extracted. The extraction process, along with fermentation lasted 12-15 days. Finally, only the free-flowing wine was collected. The final product matured for 12 months in French and American 225 and 300 literre barrels.
