The first part of fermentation takes place in a horizontal fermenter at a controlled temperature of 24-26°C with gentle, slow punching-down. Having reached an alcohol content of 7-8 degrees, the must is drawn off and transferred to barriques, where the alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation ends and the slow ageing phase begins. |
