This pomace brandy is made from the pressed grape pulp and stems that remain after the grapes are crushed and pressed to extract most of the juice for wine production. Then, after fermentation, the resulting pomace is distilled (separation of the alcoholic and non-alcoholic liquids through differences in their boiling points) under a rigorous control of the temperatures and duration to guarantee the typical and regional characteristics of this brandy.
Ageing: It ages during 12 months in French oak casks before bottling.

Aroma: Nice aroma with a strongly fruity presence.
Palate: Smooth on the palate, with a velvety wood´s flavour and particularly persistent.
