The grapes are harvested by hand and transported to the cellar in small baskets. They are then de-stemmed and added with naturally fermented must, prepared in the previous days with grapes from the same vineyard. Fermentation proceeds for about 9 days at a temperature of 25 ° C, at the end of which the pomace is separated from the wine and pressed. After malolactic fermentation, which also occurs spontaneously, the wine ages for the winter and the following spring in steel before bottling.
