The Vinification
In concrete vinifiers, with fermentation Temperature control (about 27/30° C), with post fermentation maceration, and racking after 22-25 days, racking and malolactic fermentation completed with the maintenance of the Temperature. A long period of maturation in large oak barrels, and subsequent rest in the bottle complete the refinement.
