Wine Making

VINIFICATION: Grapes are pressed softly and just the free-run must (or “mosto fiore”), about the 30%, is used for the final product. An important role has the temperature because grapes are pressed at a temperature of 14°-16° with a slight pause of time, to obtain more scents and aromas. Then the free-run must (or “mosto fiore”) obtained is left fermenting at a constant temperature of 18° for about 7,8 days, then it is carried and left in steel vats for the necessary time. Grape harvest, appropriately anticipated, gives to the pro duct a good total acidity and so a relevant endurance in time. The best qualities of wine may be appreciable even within the space of two years after its putting on the market. Its features of freshness and refinement add to a good balance and to a sapid and a fruity taste.
