WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Ca' Montini Amarone Organic 2020 is produced using the *appassimento* technique, where harvested grapes are dried for several months to concentrate sugars and flavors. This process is fundamental to the Amarone style. Following drying, the grapes are fermented, typically in stainless steel vats. The resulting wine then undergoes an extended period of aging, usually in wooden barrels, to develop its complex character and refine its structure. The producer's commitment to organic viticulture is a core aspect of their winemaking approach, focusing on sustainable practices in the vineyard.
