Wine making:
Flor de Albihar comes from an area called “El Diezgal”. These are old vineyards planted on granitic soil and whose vines are cultivated through respectful agriculture. Once the grapes have reached their optimum ripeness, they are harvested by hand.
In the winery, the Flor de Albihar grapes are meticulously selected and after pressing, they are macerated with the skins for 12 hours. Fermentation is carried out cold and then the wine is aged on its lees in centenary vats. When bottled, the wine is not filtered or clarified, so it may contain sediment.
