Thinning

The selection of the grapes takes place mainly in the vineyard during the entire phase of fruit set, veraison and ripening. It is done manually with the aim to bring only the best grapes to ripe

Vinification

the cryomaceration lasts 12 hours using dry ice (that is pressed carbon dioxide) with the aim of extract more aromatic and colorant substances and protect the wine from oxygen. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks in order to limit the contact with oxygen and to control the temperature at 15 – 16 ° C. All the operations after the fermentation are made using nitrogen in order to protect the wine from oxygen, to preserve aromatic and colorant substances and to limit the use of sulfites
