Rodolfo Bastida is the winery’s conductor. He is in charge of transmitting the style and unique personality of Ramón Bilbao to our wines and, with Límite Norte, this personality is reflected in a wine which is as unusual, as it is special.
Cold maceration of the Maturana Blanca, to favour the primary aromas and tannins of the variety. Fermentation in concrete vats and aged on the fine lees in concrete vats, amphora and 600 litre casks. Blended and aged in 225 litre French oak casks for 6 months and 12 months in the bottle.
