Grape varieties

Harvest

The Chardonnay harvesting is very premature, and in our zones it’s usually done at the end of August. Trebbiano and Grecchetto are instead harvested usually by the second half of September.

 

Wine making

The varieties are harvested separately to obtain the right maturation of the grapes. The grapes, once they reach the cellar, are gently pressed then fermented separately at a max temperature of 17°C in steel containers. They’re fermented in the same containers through malolactic fermentation. Following, they’re carefully blended by following a sensible quality selection.
