WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Zenato Bardolino begins with destemming and pressing the grapes. Traditional maceration follows, with fermentation occurring over 10 days in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 26°C. After maceration, the wine is separated from the skins through soft pressing. The wine then undergoes maturation in stainless steel tanks, preserving its fresh fruit characteristics.
