Winemaker’s notes
Grapes are selected directly in the vineyard and handpicked at the end of Septem- ber. After the selection, grapes are destemmed and delicately pressed. The must obtained is then decanted – without adding any oenological additives – at a low temperature. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in small stainless steel tanks at a controlled. Nearly 25 days later, at the end of fermentation, the wine is poured into another stainless steel tank, and there it remains for 6 months, as required by the production regulations. The Gavi docg Riserva is then bottled and continues refining for another six months in the bottle, before reaching the market. This refi- nement procedure makes the wine long-lived and pleasant to drink.
