Grapes used

Sauvignon 100%

Production method

After the harvest, the bunches are subjected to maceration for approximately 20 hours at a temperature of 11°/12°C, using special containers. During this process, we adopt innovative systems to protect the grapes from oxygen, thanks to the recycling of their own carbon dioxide produced during fermentation. This allows you to reduce the intake of antioxidants to a minimum. The must is then fermented and aged on the yeasts for 5 months, partly in large wooden barrels with a capacity of 20/27 HL and partly in steel containers.
