Winemaking
Destemming-crushing, fermentation and maceration at a controlled temperature (28-30°C) for approximately 15 days, subsequent malolactic fermentation and remaining on the lees for a few months.
Refinement
Every year our winemaker chooses the best solution to alternate storage in concrete, steel and wooden containers depending on the characteristics of the vintage. To keep it in wood, a particular and unique grape/egg-shaped barrel is used which you can admire in the "L'Anima del vino" museum. After bottling, a subsequent refinement in the bottle is carried out for approximately 10 months before being put on the market.
