Our wine is produced with grapes from organic viticulture and is clarified without the use of products of animal origin.
VINIFICATION
The grapes are harvested by hand, then the fermentation takes place at controlled temperature to save primary aromas; after 8-10 days all the sugars are converted into alcohol. To extract the color and the aromas, the peels that raise to the surface are moist with the must/wine. The maceration of the peels on the wine continues for 15-20 days, then the free run wine is separed from the marc, which is pressed. Follows the malolactic fermentation on fine lees for 20 days, to make the wine softer on the palate.
AGING
The wine ages in small Tuscan oak barrels for 24 months. During this period the aromatic profile is defined and the wine acquires softness by polymerization of the polyphenols. Follows the refinement in the bottle for at least 6 months, before being released for consumption.
