Wine making | After stemming and crushing, the grapes are fermented and macerated for 12 4 days in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature of 25-28 °C. During this period, the must is frequently pumped up, thus fully absorbing the noble tannins typical of bush-grown carignano. |
Aging | After malolactic fermentation, the wine is transferred to small, fine grained 1st and 2nd-passage French oak casks for 10 2 months, to further develop its biochemical and chemical-physical properties, aroma and taste. Further ageing in the bottle for several months enables early bouquet development. |
Allergens | Contains sulphites |
