Vinification and aging
Manual selection of the best grapes, gentle destemming and transfer to stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation with controlled temperature using selected yeasts. Alcoholic fermentation lasts for about 15 days at a temperature of 24 to 26 °C, during which pump-overs and délestages are carried out. After that, there is a maceration for an additional 15 days to ensure the extraction of noble substances from the skins. After the completion of malolactic fermentation, the wine continues its aging period in wood. It is then bottled and continues to age in glass.
