Winemaking. The skill of the oenologist

In the same way that there are never two harvests exactly the same, there are never two wines exactly the same. Every year is another adventure and that is part of the magic of the world of wine. Each wine is the result of a combination of factors such as geology, geography, composition, structure, depth and drainage as well as the diverse methods for working the vineyard and the consequence of the whole cycle of the plant.

The knowledge of the winemaker is crucial to obtaining a good wine. The savoir-faire of the winemaker in extracting the maximum potential of the grape is also fundamental. Deciding the precise moment to begin the harvest when the acidity and sugar levels are optimal as well as the precise length of maceration with the pulp, the temperature of fermentation, the most suitable barrel to use, the length of ageing, all the way to the choice of cork. All these decisions are taken by the oenologist, Joan Milà, who leaves his very own personal stamp on the wine.
