Winemaking | The grapes are crushed and de-stemmed and the marc obtained is left to macerate for a week in contact with the musts at a temperature between 25°C and 28°C, in large stainless-steel tanks. Frequent pumping over allows excellent colour extraction and good body. The malolactic fermentation is carried out and then, the wine is placed in barrels of 15-20 hectoliters for about 12 months. A bottle refinement of at least 4 months follows. |
Other curiosities
The colour is intense ruby. At nose is intense, enveloping and complex aroma, well-balanced with the alcohol component. The nose first releases notes of ripe cherry, plum, violet and spices. At taste it is vibrant, with elegant and silky tannins that emerge in the mouth and complex the olfactory sensations. Excellent acidity, characteristic of the variety.
