Winemaking

Once the Glera grapes have reached the correct level of ripeness, are harvested and taken to the cellar to be destemmed and soft pressed. During this process, the must is separated from the grapes skins, then cooled and clarified. Yeasts are added to the clarified must in order to start the alcoholic fermentation at the controlled temperature of 16-18°C. Once the process is completed, the temperature of the new wine is lowered to 8-12°C and after a few days, the liquid is decanted for the first time, obtaining the base wine glera. Once the Pinot Noir grapes have reached the correct level of ripeness, are harvested and taken to the cellar to be pressed and fermented on the skins. The alcoholic fermentation takes place at the temperature of 25°C and at the end of the process, the pomace is pressed to obtain the base wine pinot noir. The base wine pinot noir is mixed with the base wine glera for the second fermentation.

The wine base is filtered, sugar and yeasts are added to the liquid for the second fermentation in sealed tank. Once the desired overpressure is reached, the wine is cooled at -2-0°C and matured with yeasts. After 60 days, the wine is ready for the bottling.
