HARVEST AND PRODUCTION: The best grapes are exclusively picked up manually and put in wooden cases of 15 kilos. After, they are cooled in a refrigerating room for one day. Later, there is the grapes washing with ozone treated water. After the drying, the
mass of grapes is divided in two. The first part undergoes the maceration, process connected to tradition, that
leaves the obtained must in contact with the skins in a tank (one day), so it’s possible to obtain an higher extract of colors and perfumes, respecting the organoleptic features of the wine.The other part faces a process more linked to innovative technology, so the grape is
pressed vacuum-sealed directly with the wine press at cold-temperatures.In this way the must is oxidized as little as possibile. Both processing methods allow conferring a more complex gustative and visual aspect to the final product. The must decants for 24 hours,in
order to eliminate the most unrefined particles. During the alcoholic fermentation, selected yeasts are added at the temperature of 19 degrees. Finally two pourings are made to remove the dregs
