The vineyards where the grapes for Camartina are grown have been cultivated organically since 1988 and have been converted to a strict biodynamic standard in 2000. The grapes are carefully selected in the vineyards and harvested in 8-kilo crates. They are destemmed, uncrushed, and then conveyed into temperature-controlled, stainless-steel vats or, just for the very best parcels, small temperature-controlled concrete vats. Here, alcoholic fermentation, maceration, and malolactic fermentation take place. Macerations last about 12 days for the Sangiovese and up to 20 days for the Cabernet Sauvignon. Learn More
