Methods
of cultivation and wine-making
According to the best methods
of cultivation the yield is purposefully kept low (400-450
kilograms per hectare) in order to obtain a highly concentrated
and succulent wine with an alchohol content of 13° for white and
13.5° –14° for red.
The aim is to reduce the production of the grapes by using
appropriate cultivation techniques so that when it is time for
picking the grapes are ripe and concentrated.
The wine-making techniques are a compromise between traditional
and modern methods in order to obtain the highest quality. The
grapes are cold pressed. The white wine is produced by alchoholic
fermentation at a controlled temperature and the red by malolactic
fermentation. Maceration is short and intensive producing
full-bodied,concentrated,fine wines.
The cru ( La Regola and Beloro) are aged in Barrique and bottled
for a few months before being put on the market.
The vineyard is in expansion. New land has been purchased and new
vines planted to add to the existing owned and rented land with
the aim of having more than 20 hectares in the next years. |
