WINEMAKING
Handpicked, unlike red winemaking, it is not necessary to complete phenolic maturation, so it is better to rely on technological maturity to obtain the desired sugar degree and the right acidity; however, it is good not to anticipate too much the harvesting to avoid herbaceous, harsh and not at most aromatic products. The grapes are vinified “in white” (i.e. without contact with the skins). The fermentation yeasts are indigenous selected on the local flora and bound to its biodiversity. The fermentation is carried out at controlled temperature. The maturation at the end of fermentation on good lees gives to the wine complex and important tones.
SIGHT
Pink, intense and brilliant cherry color.
NOSE
Hints of raspberries, pomegranate and balsamic tones. Good flavour and tannic sensations enhance vitality of the wine.
