The winery:

The personality of Proelio comes from the terroir; the character is fine tuned in the cellar. Becoming standardised with indigenous yeasts is carried out separately depending on the type of soil they come from the grapes. For the fermentation we use only tinos oak, where extractions are performed in the most respectful manner by pressing. The malolactic fermentation takes place in barrels on traditional for gradually increasing the capacity of the tanks until the end in fudres of 2.000 liters. For the final assembly reserves the concrete tanks where the wine culminates its journey.
