Wine-making techniques
The freshly picked grapes are de-stemmed and gently pressed, then introduced in stainless steel tanks where we proceeded with the vinification phase of the red grapes by macerating the skins for 16-20 days, with a careful management of the extraction process by means of pumping and Délestage at temperatures not exceeding 29°C. Sometimes, a partial subtraction of the liquid is carried out in order to optimise the extraction of the colouring substances and tannins. Once the alcoholic fermentation is completed, the wine is first stored in stainless steel tanks and afterwards in concrete tanks for at least 24/36 months, after which it is poured in small French 225 l oak barrels. The wine matures here for about 3 months and then it is bottled and aged for a further 8/10 months before being marketed.
