Decero Amano is an ethereal wine which is greater than the sum of its parts.
Literally meaning ‘handcrafted from scratch’, Decero Amano derives its name from our ‘amano’ philosophy. Treading lightly in our environment, respecting the interaction of nature and each person in the nurturing of our sustainably farmed, single vineyard estate, this wine epitomises our sensitive, world-class approach at Finca Decero.
Our exceptional dedication to Decero Amano involves cascading levels of selection. The final blend which varies by vintage, is chosen to encapsulate balance, poise, elegance and a silky profile for which the wine is renown.
An opus of selection over time and place
For many years, in Remolinos Vineyard we have observed and analysed micro-differences in our soils which have helped us define the individual vines which produce the finest expression of their variety. We have established polygons of vines, which have the highest potential for our prestigious Decero Amano. We nurture these vines to very low crop levels to heighten their varietal expression.
On the lead up to vintage, each polygon is tasted once and sometimes twice daily to assess optimal picking time. After hand selection by cluster and berry, each polygon is fermented and matured individually in specially chosen French oak barrels. Nurtured over 20 months, the barrels are tasted intensively to assess which truly show the highest potential and fine nuances to form the ethereal blend of Decero Amano.
