WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Domìni Veneti Custoza DOC 2021 is produced using traditional vinification methods. Selected fresh grapes undergo soft pressing, followed by fermentation at controlled temperatures. This technique is employed to maintain the wine's delicate aromas and freshness. While specific aging details for this vintage are not provided, Custoza DOC wines generally benefit from being consumed relatively young, though some may develop further complexity with time.
