WINE MAKING PROCESS
Borgo Faveri Rosso is produced using biodynamic viticulture, a method that follows natural cycles and avoids synthetic chemicals. The grapes undergo 'vinification in red,' involving a 7-10 day maceration period with the skins to extract color and flavor. Fermentation details are not specified beyond this, but the resulting wine is dry with 5 g/l of residual sugar. The harvest is done by machine. Perlage Winery, the producer, has a history of organic farming since 1985 and has been practicing biodynamics since 2004, aligning with their broader commitment to sustainability and their B Corp status.
