Winemaking Manual harvest of the grapes that are de-stemmed and softly pressed after a maceration of 1 day. The must obtained is left to decant for 1-2 days. Only the clear part of the must is decanted and left to ferment in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The aging of the wine will continue in stainless steel tanks where a series of batonnage will be carried out at a scalar frequency. This procedure allows to obtain a structured wine with intense aromas. The wine will then be bottled in late April or early May.

The Story
A grape variety of French origin, from Burgundy to be exact. It is believed to be of very ancient origin, since its cultivation can be traced back to Roman times. In the early 19th century, it spread to the Piedmont region and then to the rest of northern Italy, finding particularly favourable environmental conditions in Friuli. On the market, we can find it vinified as white or more rarely with light maceration on the skins to produce a copper-coloured wine.
