WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Barbaresco Bordini 2020 is produced from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel with temperature control and automatic pump-overs, followed by a 20-day submerged cap maceration. Malolactic fermentation is completed in steel. The wine is aged for 12-14 months in large, used Slavonian oak barrels and then for 6 months in bottle. It is bottled without filtration.
