The land is cultivated with respect for the environment by applying the minimum possible interventions when working in the vineyard. They avoid using herbicides or systemic products. After the manual harvest, the grapes are chosen so that they are in optimal ripening conditions with the help of a double ribbon selection. The wine is made using traditional methods. Románico finally spends six months aging in French oak barrels.
