WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Barolo Prapò 2019 is produced from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. Fermentation is carried out using indigenous yeasts in stainless steel for 20-30 days, with a 12-day maceration period on the skins. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for two years in a combination of barriques and large barrels. It then spends an additional year aging in the bottle before release. The winery employs sustainable farming practices and hand-harvests the grapes. The winemaking philosophy prioritizes vineyard expression.
