WINE MAKING: grapes are carefully selected and cooled down before treading, so to preserve the parent aromas as much as possible. They are softly pressed in a setting without oxygen to avoid the oxidation of the noble elements in the grapes. The must thus obtained leaves sediment 12 hours long so to separate its clear part, which ferments 10 days in stainless steel basins at a pre-set temperature. The wine is then left to ripe for at least 6 months on the noble sediments before being bottled.
