WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for Cúmaro Conero Riserva begins with a manual harvest. The grapes are destemmed and lightly crushed before undergoing fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures (27-29°C) for 12-14 days, using natural yeasts. Malolactic fermentation is then completed. The wine is aged for 12-14 months in 225-liter French oak barriques, followed by an additional 6-8 months of bottle aging in a temperature-controlled environment.
