VINEYARD CHARACTERISTICS

Grape variety used 100% Teroldego.
Training system Trentino pergola.

 

VINIFICATION AND AGEING

Harvest Careful, timely thinning ensures a balanced production within the limits established by the production standards. The grapes are harvested just before ripening, choosing the healthiest bunches and placing them in caissons by hand.
Base wine The grapes, delivered intact to the winery, are immediately cooled and then destemmed and crushed. This is followed by soft pressing after a short maceration in the press and white vinification. Alcoholic fermentation lasts approximately 7 days and occurs at a controlled temperature of about 18 °C. After fermentation is complete, the bright rose base wine is separated from the gross lees.
Secondary fermentation The secondary fermentation in autoclave is conducted very slowly to enhance the freshness of the wine and its typical fruity and floral aromas.
