winemaking
Once the optimal phenolic ripeness is reached, the grapes are harvested, de-stemmed and softly pressed. The fermentation with maceration takes place in steel containers at a controlled temperature of 22 – 24 ° C for about three weeks, carrying out punching down and pumping over to extract the greatest amount of substances contained in the skin. After racking and malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for a period of 8 – 10 months in 5 hl oak barrels.
