Harvest |
The grapes for the production of our L'Errante are selected in the first week of September, placed in small wooden boxes and taken to the fruit cellar where they remain for 3 months to dry naturally. |
Vinification |
In December the grapes are carefully selected and pressed in special steel conical vats where, after about 10 days of maceration, fermentation with selected yeasts begins. Over the next 30 days, frequent pumping over and manual foliation operations are carried out to submerge the skins. After racking, the wine is transferred to stainless steel tanks to decant the coarse lees. After about 20 days, it is racked off and transferred to wood, where it completes its fermentation and maturation. |
