Natural Drying

The grapes are harvested  with the optimum degree  of ripeness  so  as to get excellent raisins. Immediately after
that,  they  are  taken  to  the  drying  area  and spread  on  grids  on  big boulders.  Bunches are sun dried  in  a
completely  natural  way,  and  they  are regularly  manually  rotated  so  that  the  process is carried  out  evenly
on  every grape. It is essential  to reach  a completely healthy product; in this process, the  intense  sunlight and
the  scarce  humidity,  which characterise the area, have a great influence. The  evaporation  of the  water  in  the
grapes  rapidly reaches  a point,  which prevents the development of fungi and bacteria.

Once  the  grapes  reach  the ideal humidity level, they are taken to conservation chambers, where they are  kept
in  perfect  humidity  and health conditions. For every order, each batch is taken to the  processing  plant and the
raisin comes into the processing line for its washing, selection, quality control and packaging.

The extraordinary conditions of environmental dryness and sunlight
make our raisins reach a top quality and flavour level.
