Sorte Antiga is from a bush pruned vineyard planted in 1920. It has a very old clonal selection of vines that produce very small tight berries. It faces north and is at 680 meters in elevation. The vineyard is farmed biodynamically, and Palacios recounts that it took a full 10 years to fully benefit from these fastidious farming practices.
