Barolo D.O.C.G. - press

Vinification
vinification is conducted in steel tanks for 14-15 days. During this period the wine is pumped 3-4 times a day to achieve a good extraction of colouring substances and tannins. After devatting the wine is stored for about 2 months in steel to allow complete malolactic fermentation and natural decantation.

Aging
the wine is then stored for about 10-12 months in barriques and in 500lt wooden vats of French design. Halfway through this process the wine is racked. The next phase was that of placing the wine in 15-20hl Slavonian wood barrels in which aging continues for another 16-18 months. During this period the wine is racked 3 times. The wine is now ready for bottling so as to settle in the bottle for about 6 months before being put on the market.
