Description
Vinification process
Fascinating expression of pure Sangiovese grapes, this Rosé with a peach blossom shade retains a pleasant persistence and a lightly sapid background. After the harvest the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. The must is transferred into temperature controlled stainless steel vats at 12 °C (54 °F) to favor a natural settling of sediments and clarify the must. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at a low temperature of 16 °C (61 °F) to preserve and enhance the aromatic compounds.
