Harvest
Grapes are usually harvested in the first decade of October, but it
always depends on the ripening of the grapes. Only after careful periodic controls on the grade of ripening, we are able to exactly fix the time to
harvest.
The grapes, carefully selected, are gathered and put into perforated
plastic cases of about 20kg each, so avoiding any skin tearing.
‘Light pressing’ vinification starts in not more than three hours
from the gathering, at not more than 0,6 bar
