  • Vinification

    The alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation were both carried out in stainless steel tanks. The wine, red and white separately, was racked and finally left to rest.

    Alcohol derived from wine is added to the specific batch to reach 16% Vol. Then organic cane sugar (50% brown, 50% white) is added, and lastly the specific infusion (Dry, Rosso, Bianco) is added to each individual batch. The infusion consists of Alc. 50% Vol., water and organic herbs and spices, and takes around 15 days to prepare. The main herb ingredient is Artemisia absinthium.
    DRY is made from 100% white wine.
