## Wine making process

No T'ho Diré is produced using 100% Garnacha Blanca grapes from DOQ Priorat. Each variety is vinified separately. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with specific techniques like punching down and pumping over. The wine then undergoes aging for 12 to 14 months in lightly toasted, second-year French oak barrels from Allier. A key aspect of the winemaking is the absence of filtration or clarification, which is intended to preserve the wine's richness and complexity. Terres de Vidalba employs respectful viticulture, focusing on plant balance and yield control.
