WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Bisci Vigneto Fogliano is produced from 100% Verdicchio grapes. Vinification involves fermentation in vitrified cement vats under controlled temperatures, with no malolactic fermentation. The wine then undergoes aging in vitrified cement tanks before a minimum of four months of bottle refinement. The vineyard practices are certified organic, employing integrated pest control methods and cover crops. The producer, Azienda Agricola Bisci, has a long history of specializing in Verdicchio di Matelica.
