Here's a brief overview of the process:
-
Harvesting: The grapes are harvested at their peak ripeness to ensure maximum sugar content and flavor.
-
Sun-Drying: The harvested grapes are laid out in the sun to dry, a process known as "asoleo." This concentrates the sugars and flavors in the grapes, resulting in a raisin-like texture.
-
Pressing: The dried grapes are then gently pressed to extract the rich, sweet juice.
-
Fermentation: The juice undergoes a slow fermentation process, which is carefully monitored to preserve the natural sweetness and complexity of the wine.
-
Aging: The wine is aged in oak barrels for several years, allowing it to develop its characteristic deep color, rich aromas, and complex flavors.
