| Vinification |
After crushing grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks by selected yeasts. Fermentation’s temperature is contained at 26-28 °C and the must is pumped over its skins twice a day to draw colouring substances and tannins. After 20-22 days the wine is separated from the dregs to prevent solubilisation of bitter tannins. |
| Ageing |
Oak barrels and big oak cask. After fermentation the wine is aged in French oak barrels for 16 months and then in big oak casks for further 12 months. Storage in stainless steel tanks until bottling. Refined in bottle for at least 12 months. |
| Pairing |
Savoury appetizers, grilled meats, stewed game, seasoned cheeses. |
