收成 |
From October 8. The grapes are harvested manually by collecting them in boxes of 15 kg. |
釀造 |
After a gentle de-stemming, the grapes, lightly pressed, are sent in stainless steel containers where the alcoholic fermentation takes place in a 11-days period, during which the must on the skins is incorporated by maceration, with a temperature of 25 °C. |
陳年 |
After the pressing, the wine, placed in wooden barrels, carries out the malolactic fermentation. Here it remains for a further 12-months period of aging. Finally the process is completed with 8-months refinement of the wine in bottle, before the release. |
