Vinification
After a manual selection and picking, the grapes are checked a second time and put together in small bunches and processed in a special device called a diraspatrice. The first fermentation takes place under a controlled temperature of 25-26 degrees Celsius for 20 days. The second, malolactic fermentation in stainless steel takes 30 days at a temperature of 20-21 degrees Celsius. After a further 12 months in stainless steel barrels, the wine is aged for a further 8 months in wooden barrels. It is then bottled and stored for another 3 months before coming onto the market.
