WINE MAKING
The grapes,manually selected and harvested at the beginning of september are destemmed and macerated on the skins for 2 to 3 days in order to extract the desired color; the juice is then clarified and sent to fermentation which takes place in temperature- controlled pressurized tanks and is interrupted thru filtration when reaching 5% alcol, and a delicate perlage. No sugar is added.
