WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Gillardi Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 is produced through traditional red wine fermentation with a maceration period of 10 to 15 days at low temperatures (24-28°C), followed by soft pressing. The wine then matures for 10 months in large Slavonian oak casks or 18 months in Slavonian oak barrels, concluding with 3 months of bottle refinement. Vineyard management emphasizes organic and sustainable practices, with no herbicides used.
