Harvest, winemaking, aging and refinement: Harvest is manual starting from early September. Harvested grapes (the whole bunches) are left to rest in a cold room (temperature aroubd 0 °C) for 24-48 hours. After destemming, the must remains at 0° C for further 48-72 hours (skin maceration) followed by soft pressing. This long cycle, which takes about a week compared to the two hours of a traditional vinification, is meant to preserve the fragrance and the aromas of the original fruit. Must then ferments in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature.
