WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Cecco Vino Rosso involves careful viticultural practices, including leaving some grapes on the vine for increased sweetness and concentration. The grapes are harvested manually. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes a year of aging in wooden barrels, some of which are new oak. It is then transferred to stainless steel for further maturation. The producer, Azienda Agricola Il Poggiarello, utilizes certified organic grapes and adheres to eco-sustainable farming methods.
