more continental at hilly levels, with moderately cold winters and
hot summers.

VINIFICATION:
The harvested,

pressed grapes make a
pre-fermentative
maceration at 3-4 °C in
order to extract the
characteristic aromas;
fermentation and
macerations last 15/20
days at a controlled
temperature 24/26 °C, at
the end of this step the
alcoholic and malolactic
fermentation are
completed. The wine
obtained is aged in
barrels for at least 24
months.
