Technical characteristic

Harvest

Although the harvest 2014 was extremely hard due to abundant amounts of the precipitations during September, it did not affect the variety Cabernet Sauvignon, considering that the grapes were picked before the beginning of the rainy period. The grapes were picked as completely ripe and in the stage of full, technological ripeness.
