Trebbiano 60%, Malvasia bianca 40%. The grapes come exclusively from vineyards of more than 40 years.
Harvest:
exclusively by hand, in small crates to keep the fruit intact. The grapes are hand-picked and the end of august, beginning of september.
Fermentation:
spontaneous, conducted by indigenous yeasts naturally present on the grapes; we don’t use selected yeasts.Spontaneous ermentation exalts the typical organoleptic characters of our land that we recover in our wines, and lasts 25-30 days under controlled temperature of 18°-20°.
Maceration:
2-3 days with the skins.
Ageing:
after the fermentation the wine rests in steel for all the winter period.
Stabilization:
the wine is stabilized by cold before bottling. Afterward we don’t make filtrations.
