Grape varieties

100% Pinot Nero

Vinification

the grapes are entirely hand-picked in 18 kg boxes. With the soft pressing, about 45% – 50% of grape/wine yield is obtained. After static settling, the must is fermented at a controlled temperature (17 – 18°C) in steel barrels. In spring the base wine, with the addition of sugar and selected yeasts (“liqueur de tirage”) is bottled. The bottles are placed horizontally in large stacks in an environment with a constant temperature of 12 to 14 degrees, where they will remain for the second fermentation. Subsequently the bottles pass to the “remuage” (shaking) phase with the aim of detaching the lees sediment from the walls of the bottle and carrying it up to the cap of the overturned bottle, followed by the “dégorgement” phase (disgorgement).
