Wine making Parcels are individually fermented for an average time of 15 to 20 days, at free temperature below 30 °C. While Barbera is often treated with shorter and vigorous macerations, we love to work with gentle punch downs and cap rinsings for longer periods, in order to extract only the finest tannins out of its skins.
