The grapes are harvested by hand and de-stemmed with a special de-stemming machine; the latter separates the stalk from the berries and then crushes the destemmed grapes by letting the must come out.

The de-stemmed crushed grapes are then pumped into the special fermentation steel tanks (Fermentini); in these tanks we proceed with the addition of selected yeasts and with the subsequent start of the alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperature, which will last until the depletion of fermentable sugars. In this phase, frequent repassing operations are carried out (this operation consists in wetting the floating skins on the fermenting must with the same must taken from the bottom of the tank using a special pump) and delestage (transferring a part of must into fermentation and putting it into the tank from the top , wetting the floating peels).

At the end of fermentation - maceration, the wine is separated from the skins (racking operation) and the latter pressed and sent to the distillery. The wine obtained is decanted after 7 days from the end of the alcoholic fermentation, separated from the lees (fermentation residues) and heated to 20 ° C for the start of the Malolactic fermentation (transformation of the Malic acid into lactic acid), a fundamental phase for the microbiological stability and to achieve a good level of gustatory softness.

At the end of this fermentation, we proceed with the second decanting of cleaning. The wine remains in a stainless steel tank until the beginning of March, when the milder spring temperatures allow decanting in wooden barrels and the beginning of the aging period.
