Vinification and refinement

The freshly harvested grapes are crushed and destemmed and left to ferment in stainless steel and in the first days of fermentation pumping over is carried out in order to facilitate the extraction of color and aromas from the skin . After 3-5 days of maceration, the must is drawn off, thus separating it from the pomace, and left to ferment at a controlled temperature for another 5-6 days.
