Vinification:
Grapes are hand-picked at the optimum of their maturity. Softly
de-stemmed grapes are cooled down to t 4-6°C
and then gently pressed in the pneumatic press. Later, the
settled and clear juice starts fermenting slowly at precisely
controlled temperature (18-20°C)
in stainless steel tanks. When the fermenting juice reaches
optimum sugar/acidity balance, fermentation is stopped by
cooling, in order to retain the natural sweetness and freshness
of the wine. Wine is usually bottled in few months after the
vintage.
