Technical notes
Vinification: the fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. The malolactic fermentation takes place immediately after 7-8 days in contact with the skins at a temperature of 28-30 degrees.
Ageing: at the end of the wine making process, the wine is transferred into casks for ageing (around 12 months), after then it is bottled.
Tasting notes
È vino che merita di accompagnare portate importanti. Ottimo con i primi piatti ricchi di sapore, le carni e i formaggi.
Pairings
This wine deserves to be served with big dishes. Excellent with rich, flavoursome first courses, meat and cheese.
