- Vinification
- 5-7 days maceration in temperature-controlled rotary fermenters at 25-30 C. After drawing off, decanted into stainless steel tanks for the precipitation of deposits, remaining there until the end of sugar and malolactic fermentations. Aged in used small French oak barrels for 24 months. Then blended in steel tanks for about 6 months, bottled and left to age for about a year before release.
- Storage
- Wines are not filtered or clarified, but naturally decanted. Sulfite levels are generally less than 50% of Italian legal limits.
