WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Viotti Brachetto d'Acqui 2020 is produced using a brief maceration of 24-36 hours on the skins to achieve its color. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine then ages for five months in steel tanks with periodic decanting, followed by two months of bottle aging. The producer emphasizes integrated pest management and holds SQNPI certification.
