Winemaker's Notes
Made from 100% Passerina grapes harvested in late August and early September from a “mosaic” of small vineyards located throughout the province of Chieti. After soft crushing and pressing of the grapes, the juice is placed at a thermodynamically controlled temperature (14-16°C). Initial fermentation takes place on selected yeasts. Subsequently, the wine undergoes a second fermentation in stainless steel tanks (autoclaves) with aging according to the Italian method (or Charmat method) at a controlled temperature. The entire period of frothing and aging lasts about 30-45 days.
