Description

VINIFICATION

The grapes are selected in the vineyard and harvested by hand, immediately crushed and destemmed and carried into heat-conditioned steel tanks. Fermentation is carried out jointly for the two vines (co-fermentation) at a maximum temperature of 28° C. Maceration is managed with daily operations of short pumping over and delestage and lasts a maximum of 10 days. After racking, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in stainless steel and from here a part of the batch (about 30%) is placed in 225 liters French oak barrels (barriques), where it remains in aging for 8 months. The rest of the quantity matures in stainless steel on the fine lees. The operations of assembly, stabilization and bottling follow, carried out by the end of the summer following the harvest.
