Winemaking
The grapes used to make this roble wine come from our own vineyards or selected plots owned by farmers with whom we maintain close contact throughout the year. The harvest is late, carried out around the second week of October in order to achieve a high concentration of polyphenols and a good extract. Nonetheless, green pruning helps regulate the desired concentration on each vine. This objective is easily achieved, as the average yield of the vineyard rarely exceeds 5,000 kg/hectare. The maceration of Mayor de Castilla Roble is long, from 25 to 30 days, with gentle pumping of air in its final phase. Once devatted and lightly pressed, it is decanted into barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine is aged in barrel for 190 days, alternating between oaks of different origins. To complete the process the wine is kept in bottle at the winery, allowing us to achieve the exceptional quality of Mayor de Castilla Roble, which will maintain its finest expression and be enhanced for years to come.
