Pinot Grigio 2021

Terroir: The soils are of Miocene conglomerate origin, alluvial. They are calcareous, medium in structure and depth. The fertile layer is 60-70m deep.
The site is situated on bedrock and is hilly.

 Winemaking: The vineyards are cultivated according to certified organic farming methods, therefore without any pesticides or other unauthorized treatments. The ripe grapes are harvested by hand, early but perfectly timed.

The grapes are sorted, boxed, washed if necessary, then gently crushed. The crushed grapes begin to ferment with wild yeasts and the fermentation proceeds very slowly in a temperature-controlled environment. The grapes are then left to macerate on the skins in a cool, natural environment for approximately 16 days.

After the maceration is over, the wine is separated from the must using static methods, and the fermenting wine is then stored in cement tanks to undergo secondary processes and complete its transformation into wine.

After the wine has acquired its natural rosé colour, it is transferred at different times to maximize its volume and aromas by keeping it in natural contact with the lees. Long maceration and fermentation with wild yeasts are a return to tradition, but they aim to maximize the characteristics of the terroir (the area and its microclimate), especially in this forested hilly vineyard. All steps are carried out in compliance with the standards of organic wine production.
