Appellation
IGT Dolomiti
Production
The grapes are harvested between the end of August and the first week of September. After pressing and destemming, the must is cooled to 53°F and left in contact with the skins directly in the press for about 8-10 hours. During this period the color and aromatic components are extracted. Then, the must is collected and a soft pressing of the skins is carried out up to a maximum of 0.4 bars to limit the extraction of tannins. The must is then filtered, and fermentation begins with the addition of selected yeasts at a temperature of 60-64°F, which lasts about 12 days. At the end, the wine is left to rest on its lees for 3-4 months before being prepared for bottling.
