The varieties are vinified separately through a careful processing technology from grapes to bottled wine. Direct pressing with pneumatic technology at max. 1 bar followed by deburring - cold storage for 48 hours. The vinification is oriented towards the “zero-zero” principle of use of adjuvants, being a precision vinification that allows use of very low doses of SO2. It is also respected the principle of a “simplified” vinification, in which the interventions on must and wine are kept to a minimum. Alcoholic fermentation in 100 hl stainless steel thermostated at 10-12°C, with yeasts selected for each variety separately. Matured on fine yeasts for 24 weeks in stainless steel pots.
