FEATURES:

Nebbiolo is a late ripening vine. It is harvested in the first half of October.

‍Transported to the company, the grapes are de-stemmed, crushed and sent to the thermo-conditioned stainless steel tanks where the alcoholic fermentation takes place. This lasts about a week and takes place at a temperature of 26-28 ° C. After racking and racking, the wine is kept on the fine lees (sur lies), at a temperature of 20-22 ° C, for a period of at least two months and here it also completes the malolactic fermentation. Subsequently, taking advantage of the winter cold, it is left for 3-4 months at low temperatures to favor the deposition of the turbidity and the clarification.

The aging period lasts about 10 months, and finally, one year after the harvest, the Langhe Nebbiolo d.oc. "3" is bottled and after a few months of rest in our cellar it is ready for sale.
